the devil in the detail.











Satan is near natal - birth destructs

and leaves pebbled crevices in stones,

like meteorites in melted domes

as screams are as gray as silence;

we are sick dogs, on bone of despair

desperation has raped society

and she is still bleeding from invasion -


her gashes wont grieve her Greed.
















 

Author notes

we are the evil we were warned of
this is the dawn of the dead---
the living dead, but not zombies
those with souless convension.

    Simply stunning; there are no other words for this. I'm speechless, in awe, whatever else you would like to say. Such power, such emotion in one little poem...it's amazing.

    Thank you for sharing.

    We are dying on the brink and we cannot see it for the gaudy flashes of tasteless distraction that constantly flashes before our eyes, leading lemming to the promised land.

    Good piece that makes you think.

    Good write.

    -woah. perfection.


    as screams are as gray as silence
    -fucking potent.


    this poem is most definitely one of my favourites by you. it is profound, the diction is great, and everything here is brilliant in a dark, harsh way.

    Most excellent and well deserving of the Gold, this is truly an enjoyable read with excellent imagery.

    as DaramaQueen said the "desperation has raped society" line is quite the verse.

    I like it, I like it so!
