Best Bloodier Poems

What does innocence cost, you ask?
    It seems it's just a grand,
        For I know a girl who had hers sold
            By her Aunt,...

Oh bloody and evil Catherine de Medici.
The queen has acted impetuously.
Thousands have died because of her demands.
Witness her red bloodstained hands.

A wedding is a time of joy and jubilation.
Instead, there is death and devastation.
She thought the Huguenots would seek retaliation.
It started with an attempted assassination.

An...

This is a tale of ancient times
And a knight of valiant heraldry
Who followed true his knightly code,
The weight of righteousness his load,
All sheathed in heaven's grace he rode,
And practiced naught save chivalry.

From the Pope a rally call went out,
A Crusade to the Holy Land.
A Christian...

Made up super heroes we're taught to love
Made up archetypes we watch get rough

We cheer on as they dispense justice
We've stopped questioning why we idolize this

As our heroes have become more brutal and more violent
We've become more detached and less present

We're passing our degradation of...

Standing that morning at that Lexington field
Not knowing what drama the day would yet yield

When off to my right rang the shot of a gun
I knew that this dreaded war had just begun

No one knowing who had shot first 
This day would go down in...

Once upon a time we were falling in love
Now you look down from up above
Once I was as free as a dove

Now I sit alone in this dark conner
Friends turned to strangers, loner 
My heart does not work, and there is no suitable donner

My tears...

It was a hot June./  Late afternoon./  I stormed into that saloon / like a 30 men 
platoon!/  The bartender says, "Gentlemen not in here." /  I smiled and said, "Old man have 
no fear."/

I just want to rhyme and have fun
Look at everything I bounced back from
Going back to write about every path I crashed on
Orgasmic flow, so when my pen touches the paper, my pad comes
We all enjoy a bad pun
Learned to dance in the storm because...

Storms glistening sporadically
Inspiration wavering dramatically
I can’t move like I should!
I am fighting against the reveling, reviling flood
Evidence of many spawning deaths cannot stop me
And the zombie maggots grow as they are left rotting
I can’t stop now—but I have no particular place to go
Mentally merrily on...

I was born in the odds, 
I lived through it,
dotted the lines on my path
I was born among hyenas, 
these scrambling to stiffen the last breath, 
Amidst hurts and hate first from home,

A lot cast in mirage and fantasies,
Hope too soon cut short,
Survival, a struggle,...

The world getting hungrier
Times getting uglier 
And bloodier
Compared to animals, have people always been nuttier?

Needs growing
And greed showing
Far from easy going
Regardless of what you read and are knowing
Better keep going

Above and underneath the counter
The pursuit of power
Each and every second, minute and hour
Resources being sought...

now captive of the Internet
a junta's brutality is beset
captured for the world to see
the batoned beating of democracy

North East Africa, it can't be claimed
to solely fill this role of shame
but now viral bits are flying 'round
protesting people's being beaten down

women the circumference of the world
are...

Do you know, static clocks move faster than moving clocks?

Do you know, silence is not the best response to a fool?

Do you know, a man is also a woman?

Do you know, snakes don't  like to bite?

Do you know, monkeys hate banana trees?

Did you know...

In the beginning this boat was bare, 
Greenest with infant's sinless stare; 
Before soles more selfish than sane
Had trodden its dreary derelict main. 

First to blacken its still-tiptop form 
Were kith and kin as is sin's norm; 
For if brother Cain won't Abel kill, 
Which...

Everyone agrees that war is cruel
Everyone agrees that war is suicidal
Everyone agrees that war brings mortar, anger
Hunger, pain, suffering, death, horror and terror
But a nuclear war is deadlier, nastier and bloodier
More painful, more criminal, more diabolical
More devastating, more witless and more evil
Human being was born...
