vanished slowly
eyes straining
around corner
heels tapping
arms flapping
hair in disarray
under a wheel

This is very powerful. But to be honest, with this subject I wasn't looking for a prewritten poem or something to be submitted in other contest, it was persional, like the poem shuld be. That deffinetley wont take off any points or anything, it was just a advisory.
The short lines leaving me gasping every word, wonderful job!! This is the kind of subject where imagry thru phrasing would be too much. Your way was perfect. Wonderful job!!
Thanks for entering!! -

Powerful piece, it seemed like she died to me. I like how your work focuses on imagery, as it did well here. Good luck.
Thanks for your comment
