this is almost too good... I cant read any more of these ..excellent work belegon, just fucking terrible beauty in your words

...of this challenge that I've read and re-read - I am going to have to stop. All are so powerful, each in their own way and I'm emotionally exhausted.

This poem would have benefitted from a short pre-amble to explain the story for us ignorants.

I voted on Belegon''s poem, I do not use the thermometer.

That gave me chills.

You did justice to such a sensitive issue.

Fantastic job!! ;-)

I am not familiar with this case, but I will be soon. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

thank you, this was so accurate and true. i will post a response to this in poetry, only as anther way this can be seen.

precedent law will allow a criminal to go free on a technicality or, possibly, the ignorance of a long dead judge who had a different case to try will determine the sentencing of a guilty murderer.

The acts of a person on another are cruel, the acts of a society that allows a murdering criminal to even apply for parole are inhuman.

i forget to use the thermometer half the time anyhow so i just don't bother with it anymore, i rated this, and also, i enjoyed the read in a sad sort of way!

doing one on the issue, but wasn't sure how to make it work.

this was a sad write.

the reality of life sometimes has such a harsh bite.

ty!

heartbreaking case.

Thank you for making me remember
