on the cusp of a red moon rising
beyond the De-Mentor of ancient proselytizing;
I fly de fying the borders of mesmerizing ~~
Into post - diluvian Fields of de sensitizing.
un chartered kingdoms weigh heavily;
as saplings flounder in silent wander ~~
wondering why ignorance no longer finds comfort
inside the valley of malaise and ancient plunder.
let no Man put asunder the myopic blunders
of a world gone mad from Sychophant-silent-thunder;
lightning strikes! un holy mutter ~~ to fl-utter
blusterous winds...Trade...See to cacophonous calumniators.
fate of silence weights magnanimously at Hell's gate;
fore shadows satan's magnate stamp: "died in tes tate!"

i'm really amazed at how many ways people can spin this prompt.
probably simply because i'm 14 i had to look up just a couple words here and when i did i realized how amazing this poem is. i normally hate rhyme unless it's done well, and you did incredibly well with this.
"wondering why ignorance no longer finds comfort
inside the valley of malaise and ancient plunder."

Dark, twisting, and thought-provoking... I loved this.
The weight was tangible.
Very well done.
