Marred Perfection

Burrowing worms of hate erupt.
Their disfiguring deep infections
Scarring the pristine porcelain canvas.
Perfections fleeting illusion is now defiled.

This was a quick write for a contest which I seem to have missed the deadline for...

    Eww, porcelain. I hate porcelain. Anyways, good poem of uncomprehensable ideas. I agree with what someone else wrote too, however, the idea of Marred Perfection as the title gives away a lot of the energy and idea of the poem, almost like spoiling a movie. But you are the artist, and it is your vision. Nice job though, and keep up the good work.

    Excellent work for such a short write. It is not always easy to convey imagery in so few words but you did a great job. Keep up the good work!

    This is great. Short and not so sweet. Is it about the ugliness of spilling your emotions on paper? I may be reading too much into it. It made me think of how so many people use poetry to vent their frustrations or get out their pain, and it was kind of like this, although with painting imagery and not writing imagery. Either way, its a good poem. I like it!

    This is quite dark and deep. This is layered. I love the imagery conveyed in this, it is strong. Keep writing my friend. This was very good indeed.
