Treachery
is your game.
Such Mastery
You have over Deceit

Leading Victims astray
Into your web of Betrayal
Finding the most deep secrets
Only to Expose.

Friendly Demeanor
Welcoming Smile,
What mastery
you Once had.

The Game is up
Caught  by the Pawns
Now is our time.
Our time for revenge

The Walls will tumble
as your world is taken
with vehemence
times three

Ugliness inside
I see it begin to
Twist and transmute
you into horrible ugliness

Outer Ugliness
to match the Inner.
Your time is at hand
by three you will know the pain

Wretch.
Feel the burn from
our hatred. Feel the Pain
from our wounds.
I cannot hate you
I only Pity you.


 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

Very well said dhuron, I think the last lines really hit home the most... great poem

 Mystical being
which makes ink flow
Surround me in
your incandescent glow
Fill my brain with
thoughts and rhyme
As I try to capture
but a moment in time

well done. i enjoyed this very much. if only one could make the source of their pain feel what they have felt. and it is true, it is hard to hate someone like that. it is usually the end product of that person's own hell. therefore it is pity, i too usually feel. anyway, nicely done.

Go Daniel!  From strength to strength again!
I feel it is bad to hate someone, I try to never hate anyone, no matter what they did to me.  I pity them too, it is better medicine for YOUR soul, and you are what matters most in the end!!
Glad to see those sensible similarities my poetic brother!!  Great work
