Is a little country located in Southamerica who recently have a big earthquake and tsunami. It was, for many people in this country, like a bomb or a war...medias use this names and people feel like that. After reading your testimony, your words i appreciatte not only the facts but your style in writing. I'm journalist so i love shorts sentences and direct style. You move me so much that i'm here writing this commentary. I hope you continue to write about your feelings, your thoughts and your ordinary life (wich is not ordinary, i know)...Courage!!

It speaks to the pain of addiction, and how it takes us away from everything and everyone we love. Thank you so much for writing this. I hate opium, too. And all drugs that steal our humanity and dignity. I love the power of this poem. It speaks to the pain of addiction, and how it takes us away from everything and everyone we love.

Our country has similar problems, but you put it out there, very plainly, what happens when people become addicted to drugs. I hope your life becomes better for it, and wish you much luck and happiness in the future. Women everywhere stand behind you and understand your plight. Thank you.

I really like the repeating refrain of "I hate you, poppy." and how you wrote this from the point of view of an addict. Very well done! This is an excellent poem, Freshta.
