Premium Member Your Death
Your Death You died way too soon Sleeping peacefully on an October eve The night was too quiet Then they came Hunting down people who harmed no one Shooting them again and again Men, women, children, and even babies It seemed that no one was safe Awoken, all you did was sit up on your bed The shots echoed through your house One by one, each...

Murder in the first degree
I can feel it crawling underneath, underneath my skin today. Why should I even care now? its murder in the first degree. You, you're not the person i thought you claimed to be. why should i even care now? Its murder in the first degree. Now i can hear it calling for me. From the land of makebelive. why do...

sugarcoat
chunks of dirt mingle with the bread. cinnamon wafting in the wind. a house of sugary bliss, a promising deal of sweet paradise. shoveling savories like a last meal-- bellies rising like dough, suddenly shoved into a scalding scene. outsides on fire, insides igniting-- charred little children, burnt sugar lingering on their tongues....

Blue Rose
I wonder, Little Eddie, hypnotized, can it be true you felt no pain at all? Ten years of age, a figure formed too small, and that poor Roadster, a gift you so prized… How could your brother have so despised your car? to pop its tires,—and on the wall— smash it, scratch it, do everything to maul that toy.—Is it true, you...

Meat is Murder
Frozen by their artificial sun, all our training taught not to run. Monstrous figures pour from the trees, deafened by screaming tread and allies pleas, Would this not be done if you held the gun? Surrounded by the fallen dead, just waiting for your dose of lead. Our Earth a canvas, stained in red. We march, we fight, we die...

Premium Member Devilment is Afoot
Leaves of the oak trees congregated in clumps of whispering soldiers A devilment was afoot; the fey felt this and scurried to the meadow. Someone was dragging a heavy sack into the darkest shadows. The night shuddered, recognizing the evilness of the scoundrel. Perfect place to hide a body, most agreed. Those who were brave to look. Others hid behind...

Premium Member I am fool
Fool am I for trying to believe. Fool am I for seeing only what I wanted to see. Fool am I for listening to my heart. Fool am I for tearing me apart. Fool am I and fool I’ll always be. Fool am I for thinking you’d love me. Fool am I for sinking in your eyes. Fool am I for believing...

Premium Member Brutus - Sonnet Version
"And you, Brutus?" And then was Caesar dead. A moment's act and history's chapter done; A moment's thrust and Caesar's life was bled, And you the one that Caesar thought his son. But were you son of Rome, and that came first? Did Caesar die a hero, or a knave? Can justice spring from such a violent burst? Can sudden murder be...

Dead Dollies
He slips the noose around her slender neck Cloaked and masked with heavy breath He can't help but be obsessed All the dolls hangin' around - pretty little lies that make not a sound The poison of passion imagined as they are undressed. The dead in their eyes is magnificent Ivory skin - chill to win Realm of the dark, lips apart,...

Premium Member Adam and Eve and the raising of Cain
Have you ever thought about the raising of Cain? Where did that boy get a rage so completely insane that he ended up murdering his younger brother? Did he learn it from his father and mother, who must've been in such deep, psychological pain for having caused Eden to go down the drain. ...
