The Interview

This is a dark one, let me know what you think!

 

Reporter: Excuse me sir, have you a moment?

Man: I have a tortured lifetime.

 

Reporter: What is this place of lifeless stone?

Man: It is the slaughterhouse of evil.

 

Reporter: Why do the trees appear to whisper?

Man: For if they shout, they fall.

 

Reporter: Why won’t the Songthrush bless our ears?

Man: It fled to save its eyes.

 

Reporter: Why do the men droop in grey silence?

Man: They had their tears confiscated.

 

Reporter: What happened in this bitter place?

Man: The abhorred slowly perished.

 

Reporter: Why were these creatures vehemently despised?

Man: Their vile blood existed.

 

Reporter: What callous crimes did they commit?

Man: They claimed to have the right to live.

 

Reporter: What happened to these frightful beings?

Man: Their evil was cleansed by fire.

 

Reporter: Excuse me sir, but who are you?

Man: I am the blessed dictator

I thoroughly enjoyed this, dark and very inviting making me want to read on and see a face revealed at the end of this interview, the face wasn't a pleasant one and that was a twist indeed.

[Into_The_Cosmos]

Very dark, but very well written and it kept me stuck on what was going tohappen next. I loved it!

[Lonesome Traveler]

Wow, very impressive. So dark and harrowing. Like someone else has said, the ending makes you go back and read it again, which is somehow so appropriate.

[Nikki Hughes]

Bravo!!! I am impressed. I didn't realize you were so dark.

[gabrielle]

Very dark indeed and original too. You successfully reflected the epitome of evilness in such short conversations.

[The Nameless]

Wow, the ending is really good - it made me read it all over again.
This is a very interesting poem, the whole reporter vs man thing.
Very interesting lines, really.
It portrays Hitler and his actions well -
"What callous crimes did they commit?"
"They claimed to have the right to live."

"Why do the trees appear to whisper?"
"For if they shout, they fall" - very interesting line

Great poem =D
