[hometext] => For by my own hands- a belligerent slain.
[bodytext] => Bleeding existence -my fragile vain My pores leak this pang My sores bear my shame Deep inside my tendons frame The composition which sears my sane Racks my eyes with shuriken’s fame Creeps through my mane- just as it came. Its potent fame hath warped my name- Left maimed by its cast of wicked embrace. Lamed by its mace of hostile grace- Tamed by its breath- an alluring whiff- A relentless game toward the just thou scathed. An everlasting adherent- in which the shadows have claimed- Hath broke my spirit and beseeched my being- Leaving me un-aid to bear my days of pain- for the deaths I’ve brought to shift the blame. This leaps upon my treasure’s dame- Knocks her down and all in vain- For by my own hands- a belligerent slain. Because I was- And-Because I am- Of such torment…I shall sing. ©Timothy Parris 2004-2005 [comments] => 1 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Versifier [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
