Introduction
The Escape of Jefftha's Daughter by J. Estanis Lal Lopez is about a woman whose name we're not given and she's the daughter of somebody called Jefftha. From the title you know that this is a poem about escape, a powerful word in the poem. The alternate ending is also interesting to say that whatever this is, it's a reclamation or a little revolution or an insertion or maybe even some kind of poem of protest against those who told me I'd spend eternity there.
