Striking & powerful quote: As far as days to die were concerned, the longest day of the year was as good a day as any.
Powerful word-image: The blood filled her lungs and she coughed, blowing scarlet bubbles that foamed over her chin.
Powerful sound-image: He scrambled carefully down the rough slope into the bottom of the ditch, using the shovel for support, and then without hesitation drove it into her skull, bouncing roughly off the first time, then with a dull crack breaking the bone and splintering into her flesh, gasping with the effort, smashing her face away, breaking teeth, bone and flesh into one ghastly mixture.
Haiku: Fury blood pain in vain Freedom so close but far away Grit rubble escape
