Murderer

Murderer

A Poem by John Stussy
"

A little contemplation...

"

 

A side of me lies deep in wait,

Hidden behind the thin veil

Of the clean, well defined

Society friendly

Version of me.

It has a lust,

A thirst,

A longing desire,

The blood of innocents

To quench its soul.

I hide it,

I kill it,

It’s suffocated

Under my control.

But what if I let go for a day?

What if I allowed it to show

And have its fun for a while?

Would people think I had lost my mind,

Or would it help them realize…

They want to do it too?

We all have that in us...that dark side lurking beneath. I too have entertained the idea of unleashing that inner beast of bloodlust. Hmm...scary thought as I know mine would be devastating! And I know who would be the first to feel its wrath. Gosh!...even scarier now! This is a great write...I like it. Be well and keep the beast at bay!

Fabulous!!! I think we all have a side to us that we are unsure of. If letting it out to the light of day, will people be shocked or will they secretly wish they could open up like that too. Well written, John.

Wow this is very suspenceful!!!
I really like this piece!!!
My fav part is where it says "A side of me lies deep in wait,
Hidden behind the thin veil
Of the clean, well defined
Society friendly
Version of me."
Reminds me of myself!!!
Great write John!!!

Oh. Chilling, creepy. Not big on the visual concept but pretty big on describing internal turmoil - and an internal conflict I don't think people like acknowledging. Not bad. I enjoyed it. :) Keep writing.

Lets have a blood bath
We will let our wildsides
Run free for just a day
And bring this world to
Its knees and show
No mercy


i love you, amazing poem
