got a forty for the world,
dull it out,
turn about,
scream and yell,
I am the banshee,
a bitch from hell,
seduce you,
use you,
break you,
down.
color me red,
the living dead,
inside me,
sees through the hypocrisy,
of conformity,
for when the end comes,
I am immortal,
and idea lost within rift,
set adrift,
against the burning times.
Say a prayer for the years past,
it comes to an end so very fast,
I am King of majesty,
the angel of destiny,
manipulating the lips,
of foreign ministers,
misses and misters,
poets and tricksters,
business is but a frugal thing,
I am above the shining,
dying,
crying,
machine.

Oooo. I do like this. The flow was great. At first I glanced at the page and though *probably won't like* but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for entering and good luck.

the scarves of red tied around their throats-
Wow. I think this may be, probably, the most brilliant and put-together poem I have ever read here. You take an excellent position and create so many different angles to the same fact that you are the banshee, the bitch from hell, the living dead, immortal, a king of majesty, an angel of destiny, and the one who rose above the machine. Incredible.
If you live life like you write poetry, I want to be on your side. Cheers.
I love the entire piece and I can't pick a favorite line or phrase because every word hits down like a hammer and ever line breaks me down. Though the ending took my breath away:
"I am above the shining,
dying,
crying,
machine."

There is a great 'olde' standard of literary prowess. It's pretty darn good, I have to say. Word content is terrific and you submit an abundance of class in this class act. pardon the pun.

I forgot how well you write. The whole last stanza just blew me away.
