Twinkle twinkle...little star,
oh how I wonder what you are-
up above this Hell so high,
your fires burn into the sky.
Corpses march in monotone-
they scream for sins they must atone.
Roses paint the pitch black street-
it's symbolic and discreet.
Souls mourn for this very day,
bodies burn into decay.
Call upon your serpent sons,
feel your wrath of burning suns-
hoist your flag of Evil cries,
ash rains down like swarms of flies.
Women cry as snakes spit curses,
bodies leave in rows of hearses-
the ash drowns out the bloody flood
as corpses stagger into the mud.
Your Anthem plays and echoes wide,
it's truly time to join your side.
Sing to me your lullaby-
and give an answer to my cry-
I cry for you in sordid needs,
my heart belongs to evil deeds.
King of Kings- you wear your crown,
and ashes, ashes
we all
fall
down...

In a sea of (mostly) bland and monochrome poems, this is truly an epic splash of color! Its is good to see innovation and creativity still flow through a dark writers mind. I see that I have my work cut out for me in this contest, but I only wish you the best! Truly deserves a gold! Thanks for letting us into that sick demented and tormented thing you call a mind, and may black always flow through your veins.

Ring around the rosy and Twinkle twinkle little star are well known nursery rhymes, and you've used verses from each to good effect here. Quite a dark ride you take the reader on, with some fantastic imagery throughout. Well done and congratulations on your gold trophy win.
