review of If Death Embraces You
By Ami
Momento Mori angst is always a treat to re-live as the author of this short and sweet poem has proven.  Ami has shown us Scully's strength and will to live through Mulder's eyes, and from that, she has nicely written an enjoyable poem.  'If Death Embraces You' is not only a title that captures attention, but also a beautiful line of imagery.  "You are Captain Ahab's daughter..." was oddly enough my favorite line.  Nice job, Ami. :)
Between 1 and 5, I would rate this poem a 4 for heart.
