  "I, for one, have liked the way that you have dived into the subject of your poem. It gives that crunch that makes poetry what it is - a mystery to the ears of the unschooled in poetry! Your choice of words is growing every time that you are putting pen to paper. This shows that you are maturing in poetry composition. A few questions,however, should be answered by you: how are the people you are writing about being abused here? What kind of abuse is being perpetrated against them? Are there any possible solutions, or may be you are just chronicling the abuses only?"
