Kim Van Breda Poet Free verse

Reigning Blood

REIGNING BLOOD

a hit
no miss
evil pile
of vile
all-‘are’ fed
reigning
blood

au revoir
reverie
hypocrites
for all
to see

nomination
suicide
let’s call it
‘genocide’
why not?
go with the
tide

redesigned
redefined
violence
reigning
blood
again

(if you sit on the fence too long it is just a matter of time before you fall off)

James Inman November 17, 2015 at 8:51 AM Deep sentiment, well written. Nice diminishing effect at the end, grabs your attention and changes the rhythm . Kim Van Breda November 17, 2015 at 9:27 AM Thanks again James.. just venting the horror I felt after Paris attacks ~~X~~
