Pearlescent Poems # 3: Black Brimstones
Horror films and thriller plots can never match reality
No matter how graphic the graphics are, there's more unseen fatalities
We celebrate life, and mourn for death
We laugh with joy and scream last breaths
Feeling down more than flagged, with allegiances pledged
Fine lines between loyalty, with grievances wedged
How horrid and cruel this world can be
When it all comes down to you and me
We can't control those who are near or far
But the transfer of energy can leave you scarred
Some Young, drag experience, the bitter Old, their age
Some skeletal closets need much more than sage
What's expression of faith? Bold, red letters paged
Unconditional love pierces murderous rage
Death's not the wage, I seek to receive
Hellfire's ablaze, let hearts not deceive
I've sinned more than enough, deserving black brimstones
Christ stopped every throw at my hat, blocking black brim stones

Fantastic work bredren! The flow was great, the gifs and images helped create pauses and breaks that helped feed the tone really well. As always, your use of imagery throughout the piece of work is wonderfully well done.
Favorite line^
Beautiful.
Thank you very much for the in depth comment @alchemage everyone, including you, have been inspiring me to write more and more, and the best part is finding the imagery that can best compliment and tether to my lyrics. I appreciate the continued support. Thanks again
Not only are your lyrics on point, but your use of imagery is very creative and fits your theme perfectly.
Keep on going, brother! Simply loving your posts!
Thanks bro,
Hope it's on point like a ball point pen
Some of the images I come across are just really relevant to the overall message. My favorite pic is that skeletal closet one. That was pretty trippy. I'm really glad you liked this poem as well as others. I won't slow down don't worry. Thank you for your support truly
