Angels of Rage

The world is a blaze and sky's are red

Born in anarchy for my God is dead

The sun never rises, for the moon never falls

Rage hits the street, when the end calls

Screams of terror drift through the air

Men slaughter children, and women strapped with bombs who don't care

The walls are overflowing with pain

Dark enough to drive a sane man insane

Then Angels soar only to sacrifice, shedding there wings for the birth of life

Ah yes, the world is going to hell.

You've got a knack for stringing together powerful words to create great and forceful imagery. I like the title and the metaphor it implies. It often seems like are suffering divine punishment with the way the world is nowadays...

Good write Courtney. Welcome to the Writer's Cafe.

Wow! lovely piece you got up here, chilly though. Looks like a synopsis for a movie, something spielberg or lucas will wanna lay there hands on (lol)
the rhyming is cool too.

Very well written. Considering the world is pretty much headed this way anyway, it really taps a nerve. For such a short piece, it's quite effective.

That was very interesting poem you got there. I mean, I've read all kind of "Armageddon" stories / poems, hell, I even watch that kind of the films. It's very rare to see something very different and you've made your writing a bit different as well, so thank you for your entertainment...

Anyway, it's still all good there and I enjoyed it very much so...
