Wicked Death

My revenge, should I seek to exact it upon you, will not be swift

You will suffer much, as I take my time to fill your soul with pain and fear sublime

You will writhe in agony as I tear at your flesh and devour your mind

 

I am the kind of demon you cannot fight I am hateful, fearful, unabashed pain of delight

I come swiftly and leave slow to burn, for what I do to you, for cessation you will yearn

I am the thing that fear can feel , I am the pain that wicked can't deal

 

I will tear you limb from mottled limb, just to watch your tortured figure pulsing, twitching, bleeding in my mirth

I am anger, I am rage, I am the dragon loosed from it's cage

I seek you my victim, not for joy, but instead for an awful panicked, scared little toy

 

Your soul will weep at my blistered, broken, ashen feet

I am that from which there is no escape, the deepest, foulest, acrid breath

I am Wrath, wicked death.

You know Poppy, I am still amazed that I have been so well received here. It makes me wonder if I could actually write a book and get it published. It has been a long time dream for which I have no idea how to accomplish. Thank you for your so kind words.

[Ruth]

Never stop dreaming babe, go for it, what's to lose, if not, self publish and network it ;) x

[realmwriter]

I have no idea how to even do that. But I will try.

Oh good, I am glad to see this posted on your page. Wrath certainly speaks throughout the piece with promise of violent, painful retribution.

[realmwriter]

It does indeed, it does indeed. I'm glad to see you read it again and enjoyed it.

Okay this is nice. lol I have chillbumps so well done. I like how the poem seems to intensify and the jarring imagery.

[realmwriter]

Right on man, I'm glad you liked it. Thank You for the review. Glad it made you feel something.

"violent delights meet violent ends"
and as Claudius said "revenge should have no bounds"

the angst is so vivid the way you describe it nearly slapped me in the side of the face.

Thank you so very much, I really appreciate it. I am happy it "nearly slapped you in the side of the face." Very cool review. :)

It's a little wordy, but very vivid. It's the kind of thing every person has ever wanted to say to exemplify being angry at someone else. I like it a lot.

[realmwriter]

A little wordy? Clarify please, cause I like that, but I'm not sure I get what you mean. :)

[Rowan Storm]

Each line has so much description that reading it is a mouthful. But don't change it! It's very good.

[realmwriter]

Ah, I see. Well thank you.
