    This is one of the best poems that I have read on this site. It deals with mature topics, stated in a manner that is both horriffying and captivating all at the same time. I've dealt with a lot of death recently too, as I was a relief worker for Hurricane Katrina and worked with the police, so I understand the scent of death that you so perfectly describe. Excellent work, well deserved 5/5.

    Again a very poerful read. One thing ive noticed about your poems - there ALWAYS really really powerful. Well the reason i chose to read this poem is becuase of the title. You used aliteration and i immediately notcied this. "Decaying Death" also made me intrested in what the poem is about. You had a good rhyme scheme going on hear. It worked nicely. The first two stanza's togerther create this horrror story image. "sickening sweet sweet smell" this part you used a long alliteration as well as repititon. Togerther these make the reader remember this part of the poem. Quite strong. The discription in this poem are really vivid. Creates a brilliant image. I loved your vocabulary it was once more really powerful. I loved the entire feel of the poem. Really powerful. Excellent usage on alliteration throughout the poem. To improve i suggest you use a more varied punctuation pattern. Keep it up! xx
