    This is undeniably another form of your gift of expression. Indeed consistent with Pygmallion and Galatea. Wonderful and full of feelings.

    Good, it’s almost like a play – you can visualise it.

  • Joni Keith on Feb 20, 2009

    It doesn’t matter that either gave half their heart to the demon, their love will keep growing, and soon they won’t even notice the loss. A great ending to a stunning piece.

  • Charmaine on Feb 20, 2009

    Rutherfranc speaks of his life so beautifully! Always very consistently full of expression from pain, to agony, to happiness and romance!

  • postpunkpixie on Feb 20, 2009

    Lovely, I always loved the myth of pygmalion, so this modern version really speaks to me, even though I have a massive phobia of shop window dummies.
    Shudders.

    Very entertaining poem. I love the story of Pygmalion and Galatea of mythology. I also love your modern version of it. Great work.

    A wonderful continuation to the first part of the poem, very well expressed; the emotions of the characters are displayed perfectly.
