Moods of the Macabre

Fragmented by each malevolent mood
tranquility would boast in abundance
whereas abhorrent ramblings enfeeble
sustaining one's savagery of the mind.

How macabre does it feel to believe,
that once a traversty is committed
another takes it's place in elegy;
towards it being forced by vengeance.

Not to incorporate the calamity of things,
but they to whom reverberate, it brings.

Rich language and and imagery... your concluding rhyme is most effective. Well done my friend! Best wishes, Keith
