Ice In the Veins

 
"No blood runs through his veins only endless ice that flows hate." Quote - Constance I know a man who is cold-blooded ice runs through his veins his eyes are dead his heart holds no mercy for the life of innocent mothers, grandma's grandpa's babies and children trying to flee his guns and bombs or for men and women fighting for what is theirs and he lies, lies and lies he is calm and controlled in a hellish way stone-faced he appears never upset seems calm and controlled in public (I wonder does he scream when alone) he is never afraid because he is like a serial killer he has no remorse and cannot get enough of death and destruction (I wonder do storms shake the ocean of his sleep) he even sacrifices his own soldiers and people to feed his eternal greed he could care less if they starve or die oh, the devil dwells in this man's heart as hate a heart where no love could ever exist no sadness could ever pour for anything precious would just wither this is a man created by the devil to destroy life I think he must suffer from some serious mental issues that only get worse with time he sees himself as a KING hiding in his castle of gold surrounding himself with brain-washed followers hate tells him that he is indestructible he is a rolling stone crushing all in his way but one day . . . one day this wicked, evil man will fall devoured by the devil he loves I loath to say his name but you know him _______________________ April 25, 2022 Poetry/Free Verse/ice in the veins Copyright Protected, ID 04-1450-906-25 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Title Chosen - Ice in the Veins Written for the Standard contest, Pick-A-Title, Vol. 30 sponsor, Edward Ibeh, Judged 05/30/2022 First Place

Yes, unfortunately, we do know him ~ the one who spreads sadness. Why is he allowed to live? Your poem describes evil eloquently. ...do storms shake the ocean of his sleep" is beautiful. Congratulations on First Place!

We all know his name..... ! The one who scalds the whole of humanity with the fire of his hate.... ! Beneath his calm facade, he may have a turbulent heart ! If not now, he is sure to have it in future. Cruelty and villainy cannot go unpunished for long. Now he may be cold like ice, but may later boil like a cauldron. Congratulations, Constance on your top win....

I don't know how anyone could look at all the destruction in the Ukraine and believe they will leave this earth better than they found it! Write on! Aloha!
