Who?

Who?

A Poem by EMMIE

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death 
All I see is red 
The blood of the young is shed  
If karma is a b***h then what do monsters get?
Bullets in the head? 
Poisoned snakes in the bed? 
And who resurrects the dead? 
The nailed God who bled? 
The Demon with his evil breath? 
Delicious smells to young nostrils, feeding them like birds on bread 
Hungry brains full of violence, constantly fed 
So who's to blame for this bloodshed? 
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death 
All I see is red

No problem :)
Wow, I really liked this one! Very awesome and dark, and I'm not just saying that because I like dark-themed works. I honestly loved the flow, the rhyme, and everything about it.

=D thank ya!
good poem, visual and descriptive, One critique if I may, the rhyme need not be so upfront sometimes allowing a few lines without rhyme adds more, like every other line rhyming, just a suggestion Em.

Damn. This is straight from the soul (and gut). Love the energy ––––the flow. If this just came out don't change a thing. Thing is this has depth to it too, read it over you keep finding things. nice write
