Best Icier Poems

She, who had seemed my sun some bygone time,
feels now much icier than even far 
forsaken   pluto’s   sunless hemisphere.
Please! reckless Universe! enable rhyme

to unriddle unreason’s paradigm!

A Dark Fairytale

As I was chained, I breathe in.
As I was burned, I breathe out.
As I was cut, I looked down.
As I was broken, I looked up.
As I was destroyed, I closed away.

Tears cause misty sprays.

A scenario unfolds
more abominable among
any previous warring factions,
his wicked weltanschauung
charred effigies futilely hung
against regime of brutality

about courtesy evil monster sprung
shortchanging restless and young.

Seconds to spare before
Doomsday clock strikes
twelve o'clock midnight
every man, woman and...
