*BalloonR* Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome WagonOpen in new Window.! *BalloonR*


What brought Hoovsie meandering in a space time continuum over to your port?

*Cow* I am the judge for today in "Writer's Cramp wishes WDC Happy 25th!Open in new Window.. Thanks for entering!

What does hoovsie think about while perusing your item?

*Cool**Idea* This is a poem about trying to set things right after a terrible injustice has been visited upon someone cared about quite deeply. Those entrusted with too much power often abuse it with their mean and vindictive ways. But that motivates a search for the truth, which is what this poem is all about, a dedicated search for the truth. A lot of great and memorable literature has been stimulated by injustices and searches for truth in the world. Indeed, great movements have sprung to life at much less.

A life can be ruined when someone in the judicial system abuses discretion. This is a sad truth and it takes a lot of strength to combat such a thing effectively. Eventually, power has the habit of shifting, but for a time it can be a horrible situation to find a loved one in.

We all see abuses of power around us, all the time. Even if we do something simple, like quitting a group there can be a wave of vindictive retaliation thrust one's way. It is better to hold one's head up and find the higher ground of something to believe in, something true. What's popular and commonly believed is often so very wrong. But some are slow to realize what is right before their noses.

This is free verse with no rhyming involved. You did a fine job of incorporating the prompt line at the beginning and end, and having it make perfect sense.

What does hooves moo and applaud about while reading your item?

This was my favorite part:

"This is not the end of the story,
where truth and justice must prevail;
enter into the middle, where all’s not right,
and it seems like all hell has broken free."

Sometimes when we set out to learn the truth to help others, we learn a lot about a lot of things. That can make it a life's mission if the dedication is strong enough.

I am not an expert on poetry or prose or much else. I am certainly not an editor or proof reader, heaven forbid! I am merely a reader who loves to read and the volunteer judge for today in "Writer's Cramp wishes WDC Happy 25th!Open in new Window.. I look at a review as my personal and unique reaction to what I have read and a sharing of what I bring to the table on any given day. I will point out errors if I see them, but I am not hunting for them. As per Writer's Cramp rules, technical flaws do not weigh in the balance in decision making anyway.

This site is open to all sorts of writers and reviewers. I like to keep an open mind about reading and reviewing. My own personal preference for reviews is that they be concise and more about the writing than the knowledge (or lack thereof) of the reader. How many times do we need to be told what the technical flaws are, anyway. Some folks, apparently, never get enough of that sort of dressing down and scolding.

My personal goal is to encourage you to continue your writing adventures. You are the ultimate judge as to whether I have been successful in that endeavor.

Either way, I enjoyed my visit with you immensely.
