Welcome

I bid you dearest

Now let me digest the last of the 

rotten corpse i was eating

Leave the disgust at the door

For I am a man no more

I am something lesser than that

A demon of gluttony so evil and fat

I'll take your heart

Then I will sink it in the shark pool

And now I'm afraid that I must be leaving

The touch is lost

The faith is gone

Moriamur simul

Huius eterne pulchra ignorantia

Nunc enim sum iacebunt in mea loculo

Nam dimittamini nunc igitur

Nunc enim ego diligam vos

Nunc enim morietur

[(Super) Heroes Never Di..]

I think the latin adds to the effect.
The poem itself was quite gruesome.
Rotten corpses.. Yuck. I liked this, however.
Keep it up.

No weakness in the poem. Just a road trip into torment and wild visions. I like the description. Latin language added to the tone of the poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.

first four lines are spectacular! I want to know what the speaker looks like, besides enlarged and I also want to know if the speaker is addressing either the reader or the visitor...or are they both? Thanks for sharing.

The speaker is you, me, Thomas Hudson and everyone else. The speaker is adressing the simplicity in being screwed after a break up. So does it make more sense now?

[eglantine]

yes... I just totally took it a more morbid direction lol

[Justin Flume]

Still good?

[Dayran]

That may well be true but on the other hand you may have just encountered royalty.

[Thomas Hudson]

Powerful poem.

Beautiful use of Latin. It gives the poem a new gloomy dimension.
