Land Of Misfits...

-Corpse of Sin-
By: Little Miss...

Pin no hate upon concealed artwork
harboring no fallen dust.
Nothingness bathes on tired flesh,
while weeping sockets of barren life
dry with no lubrication.

With little moisture the body turns flaky,
giving a show to depict a limp corpse.
Swelling of an uneasyness as shivers surround
the body to eliminate all provided heat.
While stillness crawls through the molasses moving veins.

There was a quaint light, reflective off
the broken glass. Though the glass is embedded
deeply into the depth of burned love.

Tender hands brush over the scorched
corpse and the reminants of pathetic clothing.
Pronouncing the death of another son,
the living father wails further on.

The fathers flash rubs away fallen emotion,
as he witnesses that his sons died
for all of their own fathers deliberate sins.

Does no righteous person exist
that is willing not to kill another
with overwhelming hate, that they
die for the others life? their sins?

Debts are now paid in lives
for one mans mistake to losse the biggest
poker game of his life,
and refuse to pay his debt.

nice one, very cool "horror" type images... this theme is relatively untouched in poetry, alot of things are written about death, but never from this particular angle.
Great work.
