    "burning coldness"
    ^^I like the imagery.

    and how the last stanza has an extra line (just the two words) for an added effect. Maybe you could put a break after "operation" for a bit more, but itsd fine without.

    As you may have gathered from my previous comments, I am a huge fan of your style of writing so I well attempt to interpret this poem from my point of view

    by Finalgravedigger

    "Surrounded by burning coldness and false hope
    these feelings inside are ones that I cannot cope
    through this blizzard my beliefs crumble and fall
    as I'm left on the snow barely able to crawl."

    This quatrain reflects the almost unbearable cold reality of life as we know it sometimes

    "My face is implanted in everlasting numbness
    leaving my ideals to the engulfing darkness
    slowly anger and hate consume the void
    as I become bitterly petrified and annoyed."

    I believe even the strongest among us been at one time or another driven to this point

    "A beast that is brutality starts to emerge
    as fangs, claws, and rage converge,
    eyes that are red spell insanity
    this ghastly figure of mine many call profanity."
    I also believe that beast lives in all of us

    "Now I'm transported to the land of red
    where confusion and chaos are bred
    back on 4 legs ready for vengeance
    with this destructive soul let operation
    revenge commence."

    To each his own but this is destructive soul is exactly what I am attempting to escape yet the vengeance and venom is still reflected in many of my poems, because my soon to be ex wife seems to have betrayed me

    Excellent poem

    Your energy is obvious in this write but your metre is so diverse it is impossible to get any smoth verbal flow. Try for more continuity of metre throughout your writing.

    Hello love, i haven't been writing lately. i'm sorry i just kind of disappeared. but, now i have returned and your poems seem to have gotten even better! my favorite stanza in this one would have to be:
    "A beast that is brutality starts to emerge
    As fangs, claws, and rage converge,
    Eyes that are red spell insanity
    This ghastly figure of mine many call profanity."
    i absolutely loved it, but i loved the rest also! picking a favorite stanza was difficult! =P
    anyway, as always 5/5!

    Overall, I like this piece a lot. It is powerful and memorable, you managed to create truly captivating dark atmosphere. The only thing I didn't quite like are your rhymes, they did create good rhythm but they're a bit predictable and common. Other than that, this is truly great dark poem. The imagery that you portrayed is very vivid, every stanza holds effective descriptions. Also, I like your choice of words, it's great.
    5/5 from me

    Wow amazing poem!

    Your title! Capitalize the W ! Sorry, it just really bugs me -- things like that x)

    Through this blizzard[,] my beliefs crumble and fall
    As I'm left on the snow[,] barely able to crawl.
    `I think there should be commas where I've placed them with those useful brackets. It helps the words flow easier as you read it (or at least for me, anyway), and provides a sort of ... light pause so that the lines don't seem long and run on -- I had to read over it twice, because without the commas, I didn't pause and it didn't sound right, like the words were going too fast. Your poem though :) And in my eyes, for some odd reason, I feel like it shoudl be "in the snow" but either way works. Just a thought.
    I like those two lines A LOT, though. The imagery ... it holds this deep meaning -- it was so easy to relate too. Like sometimes the things you believe sometimes get trampled on and you go down with it. It gave me this vibe of desperation in a way.

    My face is implanted in everlasting numbness
    Leaving my ideals to the engulfing darkness
    `I didn't fancy the rhyme. I mean, the concept is awesome, but it just sounds awkward, y'know? "everlasting numbness" -- I absolutely adore your diction.

    Slowly anger and hate consume the void
    `I think the should be this. It just sounds more flowy ... but sometimes, I'm wrong xD

    A beast that is brutality starts to emerge
    As fangs, claws, and rage converge,
    Eyes that are red spell insanity
    This ghastly figure of mine many call profanity.
    `OH, WiCKED iMAGERY! Love your first rhyme! But I don't like your third line D: Or how you worded the first line -- but that one there isn't really anything you can do, and it's not as noticable. "Eyes that are red" just sounds flimsy, like it's begging to be fixed. The wording just isn't right when I read it.
    Like maybe ...
    "Its garnet eyes that spell insanity."
    Just a suggestion ++ a start :)

    Now I'm transported to the land of red
    Where confusion and chaos are bred
    Back on 4 legs ready for vengeance
    With this destructive soul let operation
    revenge commence.
    `"Red" .... I find that to be a peculiar word choice. It sounds out of place. And this stanza .. work on the syllabication, because that's important when it comes to rhyming :D

    Overall, I liked this piece. There's some tweaks needed here and there, but it's another nicely written poem by you.

    That piece was amazing man. I'm into dark poetry too. I've had some pretty screwed up stuff happen in my life. And living in Chicago, if it doesn't happen to you, it happens to a friend. Mad props on this poem man, i haven't seen a dark piece like this in a while, it beats mine anyhow. You just made my favorite poets list. Keep it up.
