Blood powdering embedded in teeth
make black hieroglyphs appear
Putrid breath holding death's aroma
evil laughter dancing in blood swept eyes
Anticipating using tortured expertise
pleasuring the thoughts like a fondled breast
Tip of razored knife running through flesh
shallow streaks creating excruciation
Slow, tremulous, significant taunting
begging death's release
hope of mercy denied
Watching blood trickle everywhere
Greedy rats lapping and gnawing
enjoining in the extended agony
Intestines freed from skins containment
ropes beguiling greedy vermin
Eyes feasted by raven engorging
Snake poison adding fire within
Voice deserting swollen cords
despoiled aspirations that sanity will flee
final cut my heart released
last scene as he eats
Author notes
hope this is gory enough for you.

woah. yep. that deffinatly creates a vision. you've described the scene very well and i loved all the little animals you've put in there.
well done and i wish you all the best in this contest. though if you like dark then maybe you could enter my contets "http://allpoetry.com/contest/2351278" i dont have nearly enough entries. sorry if i sound like a desperate contest host (though thats probably what i am) and also for this long rambling review on nothing in particular.
well.. all the best
