Disturbing the peace

Tonight I have taken all that I was and strangled him, olive to pale lily white. I have choked him with these, my hands, these refined things as he lay a dreaming in bed. Then chuckling I dragged him out of the fale, I harvested his foolish brain, that were full of pretty love tales. I emptied it like cold coffee flung from a cup I poured each love thing on a pristine beach. Strewn into the golden grains his tourist dreams of love. Oh what folly. He is dead youth and he shall not rise on the sabbath or any other. Peeled away like a snakeskin there he lies and he shall not disturb the peace anymore.

Poetry Police rushing to you as we speak.
Got a feeling, strong words may be spoken.
Never disturb man when football is on.

Wonder if he would approve of the new stadium.

I really like this. I've revenge killed a few men in poetry. Feels good. 'His tourist dreams of love' nice phrasing there...

This piece was rad! I loved how you slayed the old you and took full control of it.

Nice write.

[Island Hippy]

Thank you, what a rad comment. I haven't heard that word in a while :)

[BBP]

lol yeah I've heard that before when I leave comments but it's catchy lol

Well in your last piece I reviewed I mentioned losing control and in this piece, it was taken back, and more :)
I really like your use of language in your writing, I got stuck on the line "I harvested his foolish brain", thinking it was probably the best line I've ever heard, and no, I'm not jealous, much :)
It is said in such a casual manner that it couldn't have been more unsettling if Hannibal Lecter himself had said it. :)
Really well done, you fit so much in such a short piece. Superb.

Woo, that's pretty emotional stuff! I liked the similes, especially the snake skin on the floor. :)
