Ack! Beautiful, I love it. I think we have simalar writing styles in that we both really get wrapped up in our descriptions (and it's not a bad thing, and a rare thing). The Highwayman has been my favorite poem for years, so reading this story was particularly pleasing to me. An excellent take! Very metaphorical and dark! Many purples and maroons and blacks come to mind.

Superb. This was an excellent read. If there were any errors I was far too enticed by the overall thing to pay any attention to them. PLease keep up the excellence.

Wow... This was... amazing.. I loved it. That's all I can see. Superb...
