YOUR GHASTLY LITTLE HUNGER GAMES

YOUR GHASTLY LITTLE HUNGER GAMES

A Poem by M. L. F.
"

WOE TO THE ONES WHO LIE AND PLOT... THE LIGHT WILL ALWAYS SEARCH YOU OUT...

"

Today I wear a smirking smile, with “less than” love I walked the mile

But now I’m free to spread my wings, No longer bound by sparkling things

I’m bursting out amidst the blue, a world of those surpassing you

They gaze at me, I gaze back too, such chemistry so overdue

For all have told me, you did too, that I deserved much more than you

And everyone will one day know, how warped you are, how far you’d go

The things you did were inhumane, your ghastly little hunger games

Now you’re the one in worried tears, watching as I trample fears

And when the white coats sum you up and finally tell you, you’re corrupt

Don’t look to me, I’ve had enough, I’ve drunk enough from “less than’s” cup

You’re arrogance, your highest crown, the pride before you got pushed down

Will one day soon feel so profound when all have watched your ego drown

You are an extraordinary writer of cautionary pieces. I am a big fan of the dark, yet protective veil you seem to cast over some of your pieces. A salivating sense of righteousness I can certainly vibe to. Your description is quite fitting for this piece; it sums it up quite well. I also think if flow was on your target-of-an-agenda, then you have landed a mighty bulls-eye. Smooth my friend, like jazz. Real smooth.

Your rhyming is top notch. No complaints there.
And such an all too common story, that many women go through.
Powerful stuff lady ... but excellently written!

Thanks for the compliment..

I really enjoyed the concept and the superb use of vocabulary... The poem is very well written with a clear message, rhyme scheme is very well presented and it sounds good too.... I enjoyed how cleverly you gave a positive thought in the poem... The last couple of lines are excellent.... There is a lovely feeling of freedom after getting broken by a wrong relationship and beginning a new life.... A very thoughtful and courageous write.... Very well done.... Thank you for sharing.....

Thank you EG for the read and review. Glad you liked this one.. :)
This spews bitterness and has a real strong 'in your face' message.
A new beginning can be so liberating after having been through an abusive relationship.
Very moving.
