A great work of writing. I just have one question. Why the long collum of white at the end of the Story? Other than that I really like this.

Cool .. I would like to ask though ... what are the 7 deadly sins. My friends told me I did all of them accept for one. Send me a message of them please and thanks

Thank you, missraye, for entering your poem in this contest. Your poem sits dear to my heart since I'm a Young Riders fan too. Thanks to your fabulously written stories and poem, I went out and bought their first season on DVDs. I look forward to revisiting Mescal.

Creativity: Your free verse poem has a nice flow to it. To write a poem about the town Young Riders was filmed in is a brilliant idea and it shows how tuned in you are to the fandom. It makes me smile to think that I’ve been there too.

Technical: Well laid out. Your skill in writing really shows in word choice, punctuation and line breaks. They are used to evoke just the right emotions.

Fandom message: While the poem could be applied to any town, your picture grounds it to Mescal as well as your introduction. I believe any Young Rider’s fan would catch those little tidbits, like “honest men and women of ill-repute.”

Thanks for the memory,
