No. Every single full moon night
brings back her daddy’s hired man
and how he took her in the barn
the way a stallion takes a filly
eyes rolling wild in its head.

I love it! I know it’s not explicitly stated good/bad…but reading it makes me feel a tad bit queasy! Maybe that’s part of the uncertainty of it all!! Brilliant use of 33 words!

What I love about this short poem is that the story could be one of two things: either he “took” her against her will or he “took” her willingly. “Wild eyes” can mean different things. My favorite poetry is 1) short and 2) open to different interpretations. You have succeeded in pleasing my poetry-meter. 🙂

Your words have wrought a very vivid reaction.The imagery is emotionally raw. This is very well written without being overly graphic. I get the picture in the sparseness of words.
