Demise Poems - Poems about Demise

When God Remaind Silent
Your words, a double-edged sword, Sometimes pierce like an arrow's chord, Other times, they surface like a wound, Leaving scars that forever resound. Every step, like shifting sands, I walked, veiled, with heart in hands, Through your streets, where complaints did turn, To hatred's form, and love did burn. The whispers of our home's demise, Scattered like leaves, with fading sighs, I doubt your words,...

As an easy pushover and soft touch lamenting my demise
As an easy pushover and soft touch lamenting my demise Vultures swooped overhead and preyed on my vulnerabilities forcing me to carrion camping as fine young cannibals sharpened their knives and licked their lips while eyeing me as their naked lunch bound and gagged as a huge cauldron bubbled awaiting yours truly as human sacrifice preparatory to be boiled alive shorn of clothes embarrassingly in the buff with me...

Society's Demise
In our society those who are pure are mistaken for weak. They are taken advantage of "Whipped into shape" by society "Oh you don't eat enough" ends up being "Are you going to eat all of that?" "Why don't you have any friends? Are you depressed?" to "You have too many friends are you that desperate?" Being "whipped into shape" by society...

When I first heard of your demise, I was at Mickey D's eating a cheeseburger and fries. And when the newscaster said you’d died when an elephant sh-t on your head, it didn't come as a big surprise. ...
