Death Wish

A Poem by Marie Harrison

A deadly poem

Death Wish

 

Really, I don’t hold many grudges

But tonight I wish you were dead!

 

Lifeless,

With your pasty white tongue

Hanging out,

And your dull eyes

Rolled-up in the

Back of your hairless head!

 

I’m willing to offer

You my forgiveness

Or at least I'll try,

As long as you

Are toes-up and

 No longer alive!

 

I’m your angry 

Black Magic Mama

Now I’m going to

Cast a nasty spell

That will cause

Your body to quickly swell-up

Rot and smell

 

Because you were no Officer

nor a Gent to me

Soon your life will be bloody spent!

 

Bulls-eye!!!

With any luck,

My love,

You’ll die a painful death tonight

Looking directly into my baby blue eyes!

 

Say your last prayers

Make all of your amends

Prepare to die

Time to kiss

Your worthless life goodbye!

Btrings up an interesting point, when the object of your personal persicution is helpless, we seem to be too quick offering our compassion to then.....

Really like this. Seems pretty obvious someone hurt you, to probably say the least. Writing is always one of my favorite ways to blow off steam. I agree with jupiter* a few more metaphors may have characterized and shown the audience how you felt a little better. Nonetheless..good write.

So yeah.. You're pissed. You're anger comes out quite clearly in this. I would've like if you used more metaphors tho, but good job

"I'm willing to offer my forgiveness ... as long as you're not alive." What a line.
