"Purgatory's Visiting Hours" - A Poem from Nearly 20 Years Ago
I wrote a lot of poetry back during my undergrad days, but once I found that I enjoyed doing fiction more, I never picked it back up (despite filling a huge notebook with well-transcribed versions along with accompanying images). Since Steemit seems to have a thriving (and growing) poetry community, I thought I'd add a little fuel to that particular fire. I hope you enjoy :)
(This is a dark one, so I apologize ahead of time...)
Bed sheets stained with love gone bad
Children wish they never had
Been born to those so full
of Hate and Lust...
No saviors to protect them,
So innocent and just,
So bambi-eyed, so mouth-agaped
As vulnerable ears heard mommy raped
And crying, on her back,
Dying
As daddy left to gulp the devil wine.
