Comment from Gungalo
This one was even sadder in a way because of the age. Four years old is extremely young for any of this. I hope these men all got what was coming to them.

He's dead now, and if there is a God, justice will prevail for him where it is warm enough to melt diamonds.
Many thanks for your thoughts,

Comment from Barthalamew
Hell of a piece. It tells of nothing less than truth. This is a really well put together piece and deserves nothing less than the best I can give you. Way to go Curt. Haven't heard anything from you in so long, thought you had fallen off the edge of the earth. Don't make yourself so scarce.
What did I do? Shit on your pie plate?

Comment from dorts
It made me sick inside when I read your poem. I can't imagine the fear a four year old would feel at this man's hands. Parents are supposed to love their children and listen to them. How can you grow up a sane person after all that abuse. No wonder there are a lot of mixed up children. No one is listening!

Comment from RolandtheGunslinger
Your poem left me numb. I work in the schools and have for many many years. I report suspected abuse as a mandatory reporter. I know these things happen. I'm all to familiar with the horror of such things. But your words sting and bite. I think that's probably a good thing. There are those among us that would never believe such travesties...but I have seen. You write powerfully.
A get the whole thing on the reviewing. I have no problem with it. I would be honored if you would take a look at some of my pieces and give me some feedback.You wrote a very provocative piece.
Thanks,

Wow-I'm new to the board but this work was powerful because it was done in truth. The kind of truth that laids the soul bare. Will it ever stop-the monster is always watching and waiting...thank you for sharing this very powerful piece of work.

Comment from penelope
OMG. This is so graphic but fantastically written. No wonder you won poem of the month. What a sick pervert. Really, words can not express the horror and the despair that so many little children have been victim to such sadistic animals. If this happened to you,I'm so sorry and only hope you can manage to someday erase it from your mind. Penelope

Comment from bobwhite
I am so sorry for the children that go through such torment. To abuse a child or animal, I do not understand. Your poem was well written and read so easily with perfect rhyme. The content is what needs to be said, though we all know this stuff happens and then we go about our lives as if it isn't happening. Every person should always be on the lookout for any signs of abuse or neglect and always be kind to children because you do not know what happens to them and maybe the one little act of kindness is all that they can hold onto as they live their tormented lives. I know someday in eternity they will pay for their wrong doing forever.

Comment from sugardog
You are an amazing poet!! I skipped this one at first due to the warning signs and then went back to it, because it was written by you, and I think you are brilliant. This was a deeply sad and dark poem about a horrific and unbelievable life. You write this with great emotion and powerful words. The rhyming is magnificant-all of it. This poem made me cry. Congratulations-you deserve the win! Dana
