Catering to narrow appetites

The Refugee
“The Refugee”
She stood naked
as the soft sprinkling of
water cascaded down
her war torn body.
The scent of concrete dust
still in her veins.
The sound of bullets still
ricocheting through her brain.
Black powder on her skin.
The long frozen road.
The nights without sleep.
Her baby in tow.
The raping of her soul.
Running for life,
Away from the fight.
Leaving footprints in the snow.
Bloodied

The New Boy
The New Boy
David J Walker
The boys playing in the alley
Turned into a prehistoric combat team
As soon as they learned
That a New Kid was in town and
Had stepped on their turf
The Rock Fight was four on one
When it begun and could not
be avoided even though
Most rocks flew through the air
Hitting

Fertility Celebrations Bloodied
It was dusk and eerie, rain dripped from
Leaves that rustled in the trees
Of the nearby woods, each shadow cast
A reminder that danger lurked about!
A shrill scream cut through the darkness,
Bringing with it fear and dread,
A certain warning, that murder was the mood!
A fox sneaked back into its hole,
As a snake slithered

The Bloodied Beautiful
Poppies blossom in a field
Where young men once fought
Their stories now forgotten
As are the lessons that were taught
It's blood red petal
Is caught by the breeze
It's flight brief and glorious
Falling on Europe's leas
A mother's hopes come crashing
With fists knocking on the door
Grim faces hide emotion
Another casualty of war
A hundred years have now passed
With lives still being

One Bloodied Pencil Stub
one bloodied pencil stub
If “What doesn’t kill us makes us stronger”
then I’ll have one muscle bound corpse
and one bloodied pencil stub.
Let us define death
as the absence of ….
innate qualities
life’s essentials
buried beneath
the fear of exposure.
And strength
…..let us describe strength…
as the tenacity of life’s
indefatigable longing
to

Red Bloodied Romance
An extra shot of whiskey,
To keep my hands steady,
A potent dosage of psycho,
To kill everyone in this fermented grotto,
A torrent of tears,
To drown my homicidal regrets and masochistic fears.
Sadistically driven by revenge claimed so long ago,
Sewing makeshift stitches over my gaping emotional wounds,
Accumulated from years of abuse that created our antihero,
Performing nightly spectacles of barbarity

Bloodied Handprints
One day, you'll be dead to me
My life is a hazard to everyone
And myself
My desperate detestation for you
The way you are
What you do
How you breath
My hatred for you is an endless pit
Of Hell and dark memories
The heart inside my weeping chest
is sewn in grotesque shades of purple
and its all your fault
You're a beautiful creature
of

Boxer's Bloodied Prayer
.
Once again, the bell rings.
The crowd's blood-thirsty roar
explodes as a thunderclap.
The arena's skydome trembles.
The gloved gladiators,
as blood-crazed predators,
fiercely glare and growl
in murderous rage and hatred.
Each one's whole being reduced
to the moment's sole purpose
of utterly destroying the other,
for fortune, pride and fame.
They clash anew, after a hurried
sign of the cross, while

Barefoot and Bloodied
Barefoot and bloodied
I run towards the blinding light
On paths of broken glass
Shattered memories
That I can never seem to forget-
Barefoot and bloodied.
