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 . It is written by Rhonda Cleary, and the artwork is done by Valentina Brancati, Andrea Greppi, Lorenzo Fornaciari, and Marco Leoni.

Alone in the Desert

Alone in the desert,

Alone in my heart,

I wonder what to do,

I wonder where to start.


My life’s upside down,

And inside out.

I am filled with all this fear

And all this doubt.


Voices in my head

Keep calling my name.

I can’t quiet them.

They cannot be tamed.


One tells me go home,

The other says move on.

Which voice do I heed,

Which voice will lead me on?


I could go back home,

But then I’d have to explain

My reason for running off;

My parent’s words caused me pain.


But I already know

How that story ends.

They’ll say sorry and beg

For a chance to make amends.


But they’ve made empty promises

Time and time again.

There hasn’t been much change.

Should I really go back, then?


No, I shall walk on

Through this vast desert plain.

Even if I die out here,

At least I won’t be in pain.
