Review of dissapere  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (4.0)
This is a nice poem you have endeavoured.
I liked the work of poem translated in English from French.
I could not enjoy the read for the poem is almost inexpressive.

Title of the poem is not clear to me.

Comments:
dissapere
It is not easy to guess into the English word for the French word dissapere that makes the title of the poem.
Title meaning is not clear to me in the absence of having English word for the same. I could not enjoy reading the poem in full.
Author’s Notes has not been used properly giving the meaning of the title.
It is not wise to assume a wrong English word or equivalent for the French word of the title of the poem.
I am stuck with the title of the poem.

Edit and comments:
a french poem that i wrote because i feel like im not good enough
(A French poem that I wrote, I feel like that I am not good enough in French.)
Or,
(A French poem that I wrote and I feel I am not good in French.)
This is not a sentence; this is not expressive and this is not grammatically correct.

Edit and comments:
I am not worthy of his love
because he is sweet and kind
because he cares
because he loves and loves

(I am not worthy of his love
for he is sweet and kind
for he cares
for he loves and loves.)

Comments:
This quatrain is not expressive though alliterative flavour or echoing effect in three consecutive lines has been used.

Edit and comments:
I am not worthy
for his love is what I love most
for his love is what most can only dream
for his love is what I can only desire

( I am not worthy
for he loves what I love most
for he loves what many others can only dream
for he loves what I can only desire.)
This quatrain is not expressive.

Edit and comments:
I am no longer worth the love that brings me joy and smiles
because I am sad
solitary
depressed
girl who lost her head
and all love that was ever there in the first place

(I no longer worth the love that brings me joy and smiles
because I am sad, solitary and depressed, a
girl who lost her head
and all love that was ever there with her in the first place.)

These lines are inexpressive. I could not enjoy the read.

Please check, I think it is necessary to help you, I have humbly and honestly offered some suggestions, and changed some words, and corrected some lines, and or sentences of the poem, grammatically, within my limited knowledge, in order to encourage you, in terms of better expression; you are free to accept or reject any of the comments and the suggestions as edits given in the brackets as above for smoother, more expressive and more pleasant read of your poem.

Well done overall; thank you for sharing this poem with us.

Review of Runescape  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (4.5)
Fascinating!

I like the poem and I have enjoyed the work of poem fully.

And I have enjoyed the taletelling, mystic experience of seeing or feeling a man or God at the bizarrely named of the place, the word visuals, the word imagery, the free flow of thoughts and the mystic experience at the place where you would like to go once again in your life when you would find your time comes to an end and would discover the righteousness of the place you belong or the place where you belong.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, clear, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, the title of the poem relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem in essence.

Edit:
Only then will I be at home
Only then will I know
That I am where I belong…

(Only then I will be at home
only then I will know
that I am where I belong.)

Edit:
A made up name that fits
I could offer a proper description
But certainly I won’t
I will only be sure to say
Imagine nothing in every direction
And in every plausible position
Imagine complete emptiness
Waiting to be filled
Waiting to be created
Shifting further still
Into absolute madness
Such unrequited madness
Allows for a man like me
To see what others cannot see

Review of Dirty cash  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
This is a nice poem as you have expressed your opinion about cash; I have liked and enjoyed the viewpoint about use of cash and dollar.
I have enjoyed the read, the taletelling about nature of use of cash and dollar.
But, I could not enjoy fully the read as I think I am a common and simple reader I did not like the use of slang moolah (informal term used for money) and use of uncommon word wads and gooey; I think this poem has been composed as a challenge to get self-enjoyment and or for self-entertainment in expression of opinion for self-learning, because as a reader I did not get enjoyment and it was not a pleasant read, of course, I know I have limited knowledge as such I could not reach or get you simply and freely.

Though, I find your use of the words – moolah, wads, gooey, reek and quad speak of your wisdom in words and thoughts, and I am inspired with your wisdom; that is why I liked the work of this poem.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem.

Edit and comments:
Dirty cash
is gooey
green,
soiled moolah
from quiet
transaction.

Truly speaking, the lines of the poem here are not expressive, and not clear to me, as these words do make a clear and complete sentence grammatically. For example, these two lines do not express any clear idea:

from quiet
transaction.

And these two lines are not grammatically correct.
Edit and comments:
Illegal dollars
under the table,
ones
underhanded,
unscrupulous.

Again, these lines do make a complete sentence and grammatically these words do make a clear sense as I find these lines are inexpressive.
The three lines are confusing and not grammatically right:
under the table,
ones
underhanded,

Again, these three lines together do not make any sense to me:
ones
underhanded,
unscrupulous.

Edit and comments:
Dirty currency,
sweaty wads,
rolls that reek;
Mafia quid.

These four lines are not expressive and grammatically correct;

Again, the following two lines are not expressive and grammatically correctly used:
rolls that reek;
Mafia quid.


Please check, I think it is necessary to help you, I have humbly and honestly offered some comments, within my limited knowledge, in order to encourage you, in terms of better expression; you are free to accept or reject any of the comments.

Well done overall; thank you for sharing this poem with us.

Review of Deep and Dark  Open in new Window.

Fantastic!

I have read the poem and enjoyed the taletelling, the word visuals and the word imagery and about your wish to take back something of your interest in beauties of Nature.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, clear, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem.

Edit:
I sit outside until I can breathe
Spring is nostalgia wrapped in blackberry vines
The only things I grow have thorns
Cactus, rose, those brambles
Of sweet pre-berry pain

(I sit outside until I can breathe.
Spring is nostalgia wrapped in blackberry vines.

To make myself new
To make this place mine.

I will need more than breadcrumbs
To forge a way back home

Review of Merovingian  Open in new Window.

Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Excellent!

You have composed a nice, free, simple, clear and historically related (about a Frankish ruling dynasty (450 – 751 AD) founded by Merovech and brought to prominence by Clovis I ruled Gaul and West Germany from about 500 to 751) work of poem.

I have enjoyed the read, and the word visuals and the word imagery and the free flow of thoughts and the taletelling in influencing and or inspiring of a Merovingian in your living.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, clear, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem.

This is a great and simple paying tribute to your beloved and great father now at rest in Heavenly Abode of our Divine Only Father.

You do appreciate and praise God the Father for gifting you most revered father on earth and you express your gratitude for such an honourable father who ever inspired you to live so meaningfully and lead a lovely living on earth for your father had given you memorable childhood and offered you care, love and affection.

You are grateful to your father and God the Father in Heaven for gifting you so graceful life.

I like this work and have enjoyed the read, the gracious word imagery and word visuals and free flow of thoughts.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, clear, non-metaphoric, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable.

Though, the title relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem. However, I find the title is not appropriate and correctly expressed, as you wish to express your thanks to both God and to your beloved dad, as mentioned in the poem.

Edit:
"Thank You, Father"
(Thank You, Father)

Edit:
To Him, I owe the gift of life.
(To God, I owe the gift of my life.)

Comments:
By the expression ‘to Him’ you metaphorically try to express both God and your father, and it is not wise to address even in metaphorically a mortal father, your great, beloved and honourable father at the same address, as the expression means so, that is why I think it is inexpressive and confusing, as you have used the word in the beginning of a sentence.

Edit:
ThankYou, Father in Heaven
for blessing me with the kindest of
of parents a daughter can ever hope
for, and cherish them forever.

(Thank You, Father in Heaven

my dad’s love and mom’s warmth.

Indeed, this is a nice article; advice for making a good living is appreciable for a moral, ethical, and healthy living. I like and have enjoyed the read.


But, I do not like the style of presentation of the article as I do not like the last advice for I think it is somewhat dubious and I think it is not an advice so appreciable for it is not clear to me in right perspective of the advice you wish to prescribe.


Title of the article is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of an article maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable.

Interesting, really the beginning of this fiction has a good catch and the middle is well spread and expressed and the ending is fantastic.


I have enjoyed the read; the flow of thoughts is free and spontaneous, and the dramatic end and the revelation of the mystery, and the plot development in sequences to reveal the truth and get enjoyment in the read.


But, I could not enjoy fully for in the following lines I could not remember or visualize or identify the speakers and listeners:

"Little Brother, that's a bull in a china shop."

"Oh, you heard it too."


And I could not enjoy the following line:
"We'll go into the attic and I'll prove it."


Comments:
A writer knows his or her subject, he gets pleasure and enjoyment in the read, but I could not enjoy reading the aforesaid lines. So, I think these lines are not clear to me. Moreover, assumption is a time consuming process and being a reader I do not like to re-read each line to continue getting enjoyment from or in the read. As you have not explained or mentioned the status of the characters.

A writer is expected to help readers understand the sentences and enjoy the read, you know time is precious, and a reader may not be interested to invest time in assumption or presumption, I think writing is expected to be free and simple, easy to understand and follow.

I understand but, the following line does not make an expressive sentence:
"Animal control to get the squirrels out of our attic."


Comments:
The speaker is not properly addressed and the sentence itself is not expressed correctly. And it is not a correct or complete sentence grammatically.


The matter is easy, sentence is easy, expression is easy and everything is easy to the writer and being a reader I do not find it is easy and well expressed.


You would appreciate, time is limited and precious, a reader invests time in the read only if he or she finds interest or gets enjoyment in the read; you know a writing on public read and review does not limit to only writer’s own or self-joy, self-entertainment or self-enjoyment but a writer is expected to think of readers’ enjoyment or entertainment at the same time.


For example, in the following lines, I think, it is not easy to identify the characters or speakers and it is not easy to continue keeping interest in the read, because you have not introduced the characters or speakers or listeners:
"No!" She jerked her arm from his grasp. "I'm not going into the attic. If you want to go up there you can."


Title of the fiction is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a fiction maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable.


Please check, I have humbly and honestly offered some comments within my limited knowledge, in order to encourage you, in terms of better expression; you are free to accept or reject any of the comments.


I feel good in writing this review of your fiction which was created in June, 2016 and I am proud that my review is the fifth one of your fiction written and sent today in about four years after creation of your fiction.

I like and have enjoyed the read. I liked much the monologue flavour of expression of your feelings about the door in appreciation of your feeling in action relation with the door.


I enjoyed the free flow of thoughts, taletelling, metaphoric colours, dramatic manifestation, the word imagery and the word visuals.


Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem in essence.


Edit:
How can I live without you?
For my hand clasps your knob with a caress
to tug you taut like a lifesaver,
and when I feel you behind me,
you welcome me,
you, an alchemist brewing
remedial potions for dark times,
keeping me private and secure,
and standing guard
while I change clothes and sorrows,
as I suffer my concussions from life.

Edit:
How do you circumvent self-imposed limitations?
For you are neither ornate nor grand;
yet, polishing your uppercut,
you cover up for me when I smuggle
the poetry of my nakedness
inside small spiral notebooks,
but unlike hypocritical lovers,
you maintain your stance
without promises
or slippery adulation.

Edit:
How do you find such generosity?
For, when I hold you open,
you offer traces of a dream,
in spite of my deficient life,
to encourage me to step
out of turbulent thoughts
and my keyboard’s jabber,
to face what it takes
to be me.

Well, this is a fantastic poem about your forgotten dreams and about experiences of feeling the impacts of light and darkness in courses of living and about your connections in living and about your achievements and hopes, aspirations, wishes, aims and targets in living and experiences of living with failures and successes, and feelings and emotions in living a righteous state of living in appreciation, and about self-evaluation of performance achievements in living.


I liked most the following lines:
God’s precious gift not to be wasted
Dreams like mine must become real


I liked and enjoyed the read.

This is a lesson about writer’s cache, an activity task for the learners of a course.

I have enjoyed the read of the fiction on lesson about writer’s cache, and about a family discussion and interaction between couple about their state of family living affairs.

Title of the lesson activity is significant, and appropriate, if not catchy; I expect a title of a lesson activity maybe in addition, clear, compact and complete.

The smoothness of your skin under my hand.
Your breath warm against the side of my neck.
The stormy and dark beauty of your eyes as they pierce my soul.
The way your words destroy the walls around my heart.

I long to be released from this cage.
Held captive by my choices.
A prisoner in my head because I was too weak to fight.
Too scared to make the attempt.

I long for a heaven I will never enter.

Well, I have read a nice poem and enjoyed the read, the free flow of thoughts, the word visuals and the word imagery.

You have dreamt many dreams about playing different games and seen in the dreams how you have played like world popular players and won many games and shouted in the dreams and enjoyed how people or fans shouted at you at your wins and how much you felt proud of your achievements, all you have expressed clearly in the poem.

Or shooting two for IU
stopping to turn on the
Assembly Hall lights in our garage.
On a clear, crisp autumn day,
I grab the football and start to run
making my way through a pack of invisible linemen.
I am Peyton, Emmitt, Unit,
Elway, Shaq or Maddux,
Or even someone really neat,
I am that big kid down the street.
Sometimes I see that spotted ball,
I dream that I am streaking down the
field, guiding the ball with my feet,
I aim for a net of picket fence,
I run, I kick and it goes through.
Sometimes I dream
That she is me.

Review of Spaces  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (5.0)
I do appreciate your endeavour in composing this poem, I like the theme you wanted to convey, but I find, I could not reach your thoughts clearly, fully or completely, and I could not enjoy the read, but I liked the word visuals, rhythms of thoughts, as if I find some grave or vital part of the concept is missing.


I like the philosophical view that you have tried to inject in your work and the expression has been subtle and I think as a whole the poem has gone over my head and I fail to catch the inner essence of the theme of the poem in term of enjoyment in the read.


Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, clear, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem in a subjective order.


Edit and comments:
It's raining.
There's solace in the sound.
My mind's afire,
but the rain is soothing.

You lie,
I sit.

You there,
I here.

Separate,
alone,
apart,
having touched
but never clasped!

I would have given ALL
to protect you-
to keep you safe.

But such things as these
are not,
nor have they ever been,
in the spaces where
life actually occurs!

Comments:
Inexpressive is there in the poem, as it is evident, narration is confusing and incomplete, particularly in the following phrases ‘Separate, alone, apart having touched but, never clasped.’

And the last stanza is completely confusing, your point is not clear, I think, something is missing.

I appreciate your endeavour, you have really done a good poem but, it is inexpressive, so I could not get full enjoyment in the read.

It is always good to share a poem on public read and review, and I think you have achieved your own or self-joy, self-enjoyment from your work but what about readers’ enjoyment from the read, maybe it is my inability to understand you within my limited level of intelligence or knowledge.

I think a writer is known by the readers and become popular at the enjoyment or entertainment readers get from read of the work.

It is true that the poem has a philosophical viewpoint about living and I could not enjoy it fully within my limited knowledge of philosophy put into practice of writing a poem.

Please check, I think it is necessary to help you, I have humbly offered some suggestions and changed some words and corrected some lines and sentences of the poem grammatically; you are free to accept or reject any of the comments and suggestions as edits in the brackets as above for smoother, expressive and more pleasant read of your poem.

It is good to learn once more that flowers have glory and power of their own as Nature provides and gifts the offer; you travel enough, visit places and have experienced and felt the truth, the power and glory flowers gift through their beauty of Nature.


I liked and enjoyed the read, the rhymes, the word imagery and word visuals, and good use of the required words for the contest.


But, the theme is not quite clear, and the point of view, and I think you need to write at least a word to help readers to understand and get into the theme fully, rightly, clearly and completely.


Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, clear, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem.


Edit and comments:
Venlo, Holland, the site of Floriade:
look at the beauty that nature has made.
Every ten years blooms a flowering fest;
we now admire what nature does best.
On down the river past castles we ride,
Switzerland, Germany, Dutch countryside.
Look at the colors so vivid and deep,
rousing in spring from a long winter sleep.
Far from the Alps with a glacier on high,
tulips and lilies recapture the eye.
Neither strong storm nor a shipwreck on Rhine,
shall ever uproot the glory we find.
So, international, flowers remain
joy to the heart and a warmth to retain.

It is always good to add a word in Author’s Notes to help readers to understand and appreciate a work.


A writer is expected to think of readers’ enjoyment from the read. I think it is not wise to write something and place on public read and review only for writer’s own or self-pleasure, self-joy, self-pride or self-enjoyment.

A nice refreshing story it is, indeed, I liked.

It is easy to relate the taletelling to anyone’s life.

Friends meet unexpectedly after about a decade, they share their memories. There is no commendable or noticeable change in your friend Henry. Though, they refreshed their memories and shared a lot of facts reluctantly and happily. That nature or habit does not change in man for years.

I liked and enjoyed the read, the beginning and the end.

Title of the short story is significant, and appropriate, if not catchy; I expect a title of a short story maybe in addition, complete, clear, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the short story.

Love’s glow in appreciation! Afterglow in praise!

A dedicated, selfless and unconditional lover finds love’s glow every moment of living in love, and gets as well enjoys the incessant spread and influence of glow.

Lover brings light like dawn to your dark world and finds illumination all moments thereafter and makes your life glowing.

Even today lover has left but in the twilight love’s glow lives on in your heart and you enjoy glow of love moments thereafter.

This is a good poem about remembering of her lasting imperfect impressions as you remember her upon your rose coloured glasses that has a scratch, I liked the taletelling of remembering of her relation in term of her impressions while finding your impression on mirror.

I enjoyed reading the word visuals and the word imagery and the free flow of thoughts.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem about someone’s impressions.

Of all the lasting impressions
life has left upon the mirror of my soul,
I only think of you with a shudder
and a scratch upon my rose colored glasses.

(Of all the lasting impressions
life has left upon the mirror of my soul, but
I only think of you with a shudder and
a scratch upon my rose colored glasses.)


Edit:
Life has left upon the mirror of my soul
images and memories, smiles and tears.
Small fingerprints, laughter and maybe a few fears.
In hindsight, more sun than rain.

(Life has left upon the mirror of my soul the

Edit:
I only think of you with a shudder,
the kind of ghost-on-grave walking
they used to attribute a shiver to,
in days of yore and superstition.

(I only think of you with a shudder the

Edit:
A scratch upon my rose colored glasses,
mostly easy to look through.
I shan't polish you away,
but remember you as imperfection.

I shall not polish you away

You were going to Budapest by train; you thought she was sitting beside you, you felt her presence and felt her long black hair on your shoulder, you were watching outside through window and you looked into her big brown eyes and you thought of living with her and she stared back into your eyes and thought how could you live her life.


This is a good monologue about living a life with her; you continued thinking of her in the train.
I liked the monologue and enjoyed the read.


Title of the story is significant, and appropriate, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the story.

On the Train I imagine you

The seat cracked; nobody beside me.

I look into your big brown eyes and see the what ifs.

You could live like that but it’s not your life.
(You could live like that but it was not your life.)


Edit:
You stare back into my eyes; not our life.
(You stare back into my eyes, not our lives.)

And the train’s horn cries out like a battle cry; Final stop, Budapest is next…

Blessed! Surprises of love relation! Love in appreciation!

I liked this prose poem about your blessed and glorious love relationship. I enjoyed the read, the word visuals and imagery.

Your love, love relationship, appreciation of love, love feeling and surprising love relationship is inexpressible in words.

Title of the poem is significant, if not catchy; I expect a title of a poem maybe in addition, complete, attention-drawing, captivating, tricky, and or unforgettable. Though, it relates to the theme and the thematic appreciation of the poem.

Edit:
The most exquisite, romantic,
And unexpected chance -
Your heartfelt stirrings
Completely ignited
My budding passions,
And I became thoroughly consumed
By your radiant and lustrous beauty.

(The most exquisite, romantic
and unexpected chance is
your heartfelt stirrings that
completely ignited
my budding passions
and I became thoroughly consumed by
your radiant and lustrous beauty.)

Edit:
Our deepest desires were fulfilled,
And we began that fateful journey
Down life's glorious path;
That neverending road of grace and inspiration
Known only to the lucky few
Who are joined in the most blessed
And sacred unions.

(Our deepest desires were fulfilled

We are now completely enmeshed
In our feelings of attraction and yearning...
Words cannot express
The harmonious depth
Of our joyous partnership.

Fantastic!


This is really a poem with a moral I like. As it was a pleasant and enjoyable read all the way.

I liked the poem, the taletelling, the word imagery, the word visuals, the moral, the message, the free flow of thoughts, the rhythms of thoughts, the rhymes, the metaphoric use in the story, the realistic story with a good message of living and fine lesson for teaching human beings.

Title of the poem is significant, clear, complete and appropriate.

"Once upon a time, there lived a..mouse/who spent his days searching a particular house.."
Once upon a time, there lived a mouse that spent his days searching a particular house.


Edit:
Once upon a time, there lived a finicky mouse,
Who spent his days searching a particular house,
For a worthwhile sign of some delectable cheese,
But he could never find this delicious food with ease.

(Once upon a time, there lived a finicky mouse
that spent his days searching a particular house
for a worthwhile sign of some delectable cheese
but, he could never find this delicious food with ease.)


Edit:
At last, he grew tired of his improbable plan
Of searching the house with a simple scan;
Into cupboards and drawers, he decided to dig
In search of the food, or something else big.

(At last, he grew tired of his improbable plan
of searching the house with a simple scan
into cupboards and drawers, he decided to dig
in search of the food, or something else big.)


Edit:
But hard as he tried, he still found no cheese,
Nor a food scrap or morsel, try as he please!
This house without food made so little sense –
Why would a mouse pay such an expense?

(But, hard as he tried, he still found no cheese
nor a food scrap or morsel, try as he please.
This house without food made so little sense.
Why would a mouse pay such an expense?)


Edit:
So the finicky mouse had to look elsewhere –
There clearly wasn’t any delicious food there.
He left that strange abode with nothing to eat
And searched for food in the middle of the street…

(So, the finicky mouse had to look elsewhere.
There clearly was not any delicious food there.
He left that strange abode with nothing to eat
and searched for food in the middle of the street.)


Edit:
Then a few blocks away, he found a garbage can,
And in it he found every scrap known to man.
But the cheese he found there was smelly and old;
From not being eaten, it had developed mold.

(Then, a few blocks away, he found a garbage can
and in it he found every scrap known to man.
But, the cheese he found there was smelly and old
from not being eaten, it had developed mold.)


Edit:
A creature such as this can scavenge from people;
A mouse can live comfortably, plainly and simple.
But sometimes, the humans know there’s a mouse
And lock away the food that’s inside their house!

(A creature such as this can scavenge from people.
A mouse can live comfortably, plainly and simple.
But, sometimes the humans know there is a mouse
and lock away the food that is inside their house.)


Edit:
That finicky mouse will likely not fail,
But the dignity of people must also prevail!
The moral of this story is prevention’s a must;
Those who are clueless will boom, and then bust…
