Youth painted a picture age has destroyed.
Glimmer and guild once thrilled a young boy.
Perfect white teeth ‘neath tuxedo bow,
hair wrought in art, all just for show.
Jets and gondolas, palatial groomed lawns
hide seething creatures of pure evil spawn.
No longer desired, such childish yearns,
replaced now by fires built only to burn
those maggots of humans, by skin and by bone;
would fate take them all, leaving good people alone.

Upside Down World

Youth painted a picture age has destroyed.
Glimmer and guild once thrilled a young boy.
Perfect white teeth ‘neath tuxedo bow,
hair wrought in art, all just for show.
Jets and gondolas, palatial groomed lawns
hide seething creatures of pure evil spawn.
No longer desired, such childish yearns,
replaced now by fires built only to burn
those maggots of humans, by skin and by bone;
would fate take them all, leaving good people alone.

Wow....there really are no words that can describe how your words have made me feel...just wow. The world, as well as every person In it, puts on a facade. But with your words I feel as though I/'/ve been able to lift the world/'/s veil, and finally can see beneath every person/'/s mask...

I remember as a child how everything was new and exciting. I took everything and everyone at face value because I didn/'/t know any better..
Now I/'/m familiar with the poison in it and I see everything and everyone for what they really are.
Sad but true

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
