Heavenly trees are so barren now
Skeletons under the midnight sky
Devil playing macabre game
Evil in the streets has begun
An intense poem that bares the truth. Words like devil, evil and skeletons give the poem a chilling feel.
And that's exactly the feeling that I wanted to convey in these chilling times! Geeta, thank you for reinforcing that!
Poet Dash, I greatly appreciate your positive constuctive criticism!
THX, M.J. for adding my poem to your favourites! Always an honour!
CCR, one of mine all-time favourite bands. They were the band that my highschool rebels (myself included) provided the impetus for our passive rebellion.We weren't exactly a terror. But we made the principal and VP earn their money!
