Dragged To Hell

I am exhausted
All these faces haunt my soul
No sleep comes to me
When I killed them they all cried
Now they watch me with those grins
I know I'll be dragged to hell


For Freddie's Tanka Contest
Let me see if you can guess I wrote this one.

Sorry I am late in offering my congratulations. You also won second place as a wool-puller, (see the blog). Good job on both your wins. This new style is quite different.

Not really sure Lol, maybe to many episodes of criminal minds or perhaps reading Stephen King Novels.

Creepy! As a crime fiction author, I love it. I like that you took a different point of view and got inside a killer's head. It reminds me of Poe.

Yikes! This was something I didn't expect from you... don't stay up too late watching horror films would be my advice! Grudge kept me awake at nights for at least two weeks. This could also be about a post-war veteran, coming back with all the awful memories of battle... you put me in the moment.

Our deep, it's stark, our abyss, dark. It's our awakening that answers. Love it Richard, I so love Dark writes. Have a koolio weekend, James <> also says a massive thank you, especially for Colleen xx

Reading the comments, I see why you did one like this. I think you will fool him, Richard. Way to go!

This is a sure masquarade if you are going for a poem that does not reflect your usual style...great job!! (I see that it is for the contest to go into a different type of poem than the usual!) This will do it!

As long as you know....this isn't who you are...SURE...all that what lurks within stuff was pretty intense, but...it is good to explore! I just wanted to tease.

Richard Lamoureux

March 31, 2013 at 1:35 PM

Sopposed to do a poem unrecognizable from my normal persona so I guess mission accomplished.

Eileen Manassian

March 31, 2013 at 1:23 PM

Was that too candid. I'm sorry. I don't picture you as a killer....rather a healer.

Richard Lamoureux

Don't worry I have not moved to the dark side, this is for Isaiah's contest. I had to write in a new form and different than my regular way of expressing myself.
