Thoughts on The Curse of the Sea Witches: A Little Mermaid Graphic Novel

I’ve been in the mood for fantasy stories and mermaids lately, so I was happy to get The Curse of the Sea Witches: A Little Mermaid Graphic Novel .

Blind Flower

Every whispered rumor,

Every little lie,

Is sure to catch up to you.

You cannot run or hide.


It starts out very small,

Seemingly insignificant,

But it grows and it grows

Until the whole world notices. Magnificent.


That little seed you planted,

The one you thought was no big deal,

Becomes a dodder plant that blankets you...

Your fate is sealed.


The dodder drains you, steals your sunlight,

Leaving you weak and in the dark,

A darkness that reflects

The darkness in your heart.


You may cry for help,

But your pleas fall on deaf ears.

The same people who could've been your saviors

Are the ones you gossiped about for years.


The parasite completely suffocates you, 

And what do you become?

A blind, shriveled flower, all alone,

No longer able to greet the sun.
