Fixation on a stagnant life, decaying and engulfed by flies.
Undertaken by endless strife, a tangible and disturbing sight.
Free flowing life, now shut off and draped in darkness.
Self inflicted, driven mad and desperate, living heartless.
Feet dangle above the ground, stricken by the noose wrapped around.
Settled high above without working lungs, pale faced, dismal and hung.
Saturated in pain, life lived and died, but still forgotten.
Uneased by tears, now essence dead and rotten.
Sickening stench of death, plaguing each and every breath.
Embodied by a deep and dark torment, now eased, looking the part of an ominous ornament.
Empty souls, trapped in a world of infinite pain
Tired and ill fated, ongoing struggle, only to remain
. . .
Vacant eyes stare torwards the east, twilight shadows the perils deceased.
Sunrise brightens the one-tree field, Unmasking the broken man, now healed

WoW! Clark this is deffienately one of my favorites from you! This was outstanding! I really like the rhyme scheme here I felt like the poem's purpose was more to show a story and you needed more room to to do that so giving yourself room to write and then summing it up with two rhyming lines after it was a wonderful idea and the ending was EXCELLENT! ofcourse it was though, you wrote it.
Besides the ending I really liked this line:
'Free flowing life, now shut off and draped in darkness.'
It may just be the word draped but it really got me in to a serious mood and set the tone of this piece.
Phenominal job!
