Well if you really care what I have to say about the last poem, I think it's fantastic. ^^

It really appealed to me perhaps with the dark theme. ^^ The rain sets the feeling perfectly, I could imagine a scene in my mind. It set my mind on fire, made me wonder what had happened to the person's sister...


Quote:

The secrets, the lies,
The slander, the smear.
I loved that bit, it's so catchy. =3
Quote:

Adultery.
A mortal sin.
Simply a pleasure,
Or more of a deep,
Dark, hideaway.
It really touched my soul, for... a certain reason... that line. I love how it starts - one word, which can mean a thousand different ones ^^; I have one problem with that, the only problem in the whole poem I found: Why does it goe deep | dark, hideaway? If they don't belong together please excuse me. XD

The flow was nice, and I loved the bits in italics; they tell a whole story on their own if you read them without the rest.

Lovely ^^

Hitler's Love

As the torrents of rain soak
What sunlight there should be
From the despondent dawn,
Corpses lie in their scores,
Swollen, drenched, not just by
Water, but by the blood oozing
Out from their hearts.

Two vultures, nestled close,
Watch, unstirred, as they swoop
Down and pick the eyes and ears
And flesh until they both are fully
Gorged. Leaving their hollow remnants
In peace, they fly back to their dead
Twig upon dead tree, and embrace,
Almost with affection.

As he drives his jet black motor
Through the streets of Berlin,
His fumes of human roast, clinging
To his bristle moustache, the Fuhrer
Stops, at a small florist to pick up
Roses for his beloved Eva upon his
Return to his hidden hideaway.

Should we rejoice in this gratitude
That the epitome of evil can find the
Smallest morsel of warm, tender love
In the icy caverns of his heart,
Or should we despair, for in these caverns
Of ignorant radiance lies the stone cold truths of
Evil, Malice and Hatred.

I hope everyone likes it... well, I think ^_^

Oooh, this was a very nice poem, Jon. ^________^ I love the themes you choose, they're totally random yet the poems have such meaning that your randomness doesn't even matter. XD

I adore the descriptions you used, especially this part:
His fumes of human roast, clinging
To his bristle moustache, the Fuhrer


It made me think of an ecil so great...that no human could possibly surpass it. To me, Hitler was not a man. He was the lowest parasite that could have ever existed upon this earth. The murderous traits he had...and the torture chambers he had concocted...that man was truly evil.

Your poem doesn't just show the evil that was vurning inside Hitler, but you bring light to the dreadful moment. This is the part I'm talking about:
Stops, at a small florist to pick up
Roses for his beloved Eva upon his
Return to his hidden hideaway.


The part with the roses sort of brings light to the moment of despair. For it contrasts quite nicely. An evil man hold a beautiful flower. Yet every rose has its thorns.

Awesome job Jon! ^^ I absolutely loved it. <3333 *glomps*

Psychiatry

I grab my pistol from my pocket.
I shoot the first person I see.
In the chest. In the heart.
Everyone flees in danger.
I shoot again. A woman this time.
Almost point blank range.
I shoot randomly. I then reload.
I keep shooting everyone.
No one can hide from me.
I shoot a man in blue.
I shoot another one.
And another one.
And another one.
Until I am shot. With a dart.
I grow weary. I shoot again.
I miss. I fall. I collapse.

I wake in a cell, bare and empty.
A balding man sits at the other side.
He asks me the same question.
Why did I shoot?
WHY did I shoot?
WHY DID I SHOOT?
How am I supposed to know?
He thinks I'm insane.
Although, maybe I am.
Why did I shoot those people?

The balding man says he'll speak tomorrow.
I hear him uttering the words: Hopeless Case.
Why am I Hopless? Why am I here?
Why did I shoot those people?
Just... why?
