Topic:
ambiguous
|
with words that cut like razors
and eyes that burn like gasoline
the only choice was to run away
nothings ever what it seems
the serpant speaks with a split tongue
the jester wears a mask
whatever questions you kept silent
had a simple answer if youd ask
but games were played
and war was waged
behold a slaughter
as we are aged
mixed messages are no longer needed
hatred brews the hearts contempt
the masks once worn no longer fit
the bottom comes close, where will we hit
whats done is gone
and gone has past
the presents here
but it wont last
future lies are to be told
slither new tales, all behold

This is the single most genius poem I've read yet!!! You brilliant, brilliant poet! How has no one yet noticed? The poem is shaped like a mask as well. EXCELLENT! |
