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 ~Shan~ |

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 There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |
