Karma's Son

Buried deep in an unmarked grave
A child is given birth
Born to a corpse, now death's slave
He claws he way through the earth

He's not quite dead nor alive it seems
As he tinkers on the fringe
Conceived by the sound of his mother's screams
Hell bent on taking revenge

His mother lived only nineteen years
Then killed by a gang of three
Born through the hate in his mother's tears
Now karma has set him free

He searches the earth, both high and low
Till he finds his heart's desire
Making them suffer and all die slow
As he drags them through the fire

With the gates of hell now open wide
His deed on earth is done
But remember this warning, you can't hide
So beware of Karma's son

I miss your poetry? Where have you gone?

[Lizzie Mitchell]

omg I love this
it's deep, dark, haunting
each line mildly disturbing
allowing you to think about it
rather than just being shocked
so intelligently written
captivating and profound
love love love

A fireside tale worth being told...

This is very impressive. It has a deep sense of malice throughout the poem though it certainly does not lack beauty
