- "Especially the fairytale-for-adults that is Evolution religion, the real “opiate of the masses†that is always bait-and-switched with reason-based religion which is then falsely blamed for the hellish consequences, kind of the idea of this poem: the innocents destroyed by the opiate in its various forms and the dealers getting rich by it."

- "I believe that fairy tales are inherently evil... when you read them and break them down they always spell doom for the protagonist... this is exceptionally good! Kudos! ~worm~"

- "The Rachael Society in the Catholic church is for such lamentations that we inflict upon ourselves my friend. Truly, the full impact of the consequences can only come later as we reflect on our misdeeds, poor decisions, and unconsidered consequences that we are forced to bear for a lifetime of regret. There are many reasons why - but the burden still remains, sadly. Cheers for posting a very topical and tearful tale; shared by many of us - Dan"

- "Such a great ebb and flow here. It was dark and gruesome where it needed to be but you never lost the beauty of the write. Well written."

- "So many vibrant images begging for more elaboration. Seem to me a cautionary tale of legend that has fallen from the memory of Men. Welcome to DP and cheers! - Dan"

- "Yeah, when writing a poem like this it almost seems wrong to sugarcoat the subject matter with any attempt at depth of poetic beauty, but that's what I usually end up doing. I'm glad somebody liked it, thanks..."

- "there is much more here than meets the eye... Hollywood producers, sex trafficking and the hollow screams of the news agencies all come together to defile the innocent... if I'm too off-base with this remark, let me know... I will delete it... Be Well! ~worm~"

- "Oh this is just perfect. The rhyme scheme lenda to such a flow, the imagery is on fire... And you end this jam by wrapping it in the most beautiful of bows. This is exquisite fare. Welcome to the fold, Paradoxology, I look forward to reading more from you."

- "Thanks...for me intensity in a poem is achieved through careful rhyming/assonance and meter, which I would compare to drums and bass in a melodic rock song which support the melodies and vocals (and therefore the words and the message in those words) and if done right greatly enhances their power and beauty. In a poem there's no audible music, so this “rhythm section†has to come from somewhere if you want this enhancing effect."

- "The last two lines really packed a punch and drove this epic poem home for me. Love can turn into hate, and then it becomes lies just to conceal the hate. I do hope that you plan on staying a while and I get to see more of your work. Welcome to our midst. Rebs:)."

- "And other times it seems like the whole house has been ripped off, leaving only the foundation. Maybe that's why it's better to build on rock and not sand... Thanks"
