There is so much rich and wonderful talent on abctales and this month has proven to be exceptionally brilliant. I am thrilled and honoured to say that the two pieces which I remain absolutely captivated by are;
 
Trifecta - Maggyvaneijk:
 
 
This poem blew me away as it did others with its depth of emotional rawness and honesty. The best and most poignant poem I have read in a long long time. 
 
Lakehouse- Stephen Thom:
 
 
 I love the structure and tension in this haunting and disturbing story. Every word is so well thought out, creating a masterpiece which takes you deep inside the story and kind of leaves you there. A beautifully mesmerising piece of fiction.
