Ironic Zink Poet Free verse

Moral Abandonment

The day was long gone as midnight became an opaque obscurity.
Her ebony veneer was
   enough to hypnotize.
Smoke clouding homicidal judgment . . .
   I stood aloof—
Wondering about death.
   How am I suppose to suture such a crimson masquerade;
   barely hanging onto the cuff of my blazer...?
The day was long gone as
   midnight's moon gazed upon madness, well passed her
   expiration.

Beautiful Scars June 6, 2017 at 9:18 PM wow Zink! You said so much in such few words. So intensely deep and beautifully dark. It gave me chills as I read it a few times to keep gathering more depth out of the poem. Be blessed..thank you and congrats :) Ironic Zink June 6, 2017 at 9:38 PM I appreciate such a kind comment and placement. Thank you very much!
