Truth kills; Lies heal (Diatelle)

by Mimed Lovette   Jan 10, 2010


.....................................Lies
................................Concealed
............................Facts are sealed
.............................Verity scorched
.....................Strapped to oblivion, feel
.............misty colored fogs of swirls torched
...........by dearest facade master at her porch
Swiftly knits patchwork of hide, skintight knots he ties.
................Selecting deceit, reality dodged.
.........Tainted, stained and fake bliss he forged
.....................Consequences she'd deal
.......................Tarnished truth gorged
..............................Left unhealed.
.................................Truth kills;
......................................Lie.

    ^Agreed..Beautifully penned Landy..XD..Loved how the poem fits with the given quotes..Loved the form as well..And i should applaud you for your achievement..Not all RTVW members can do this, including myself, although i might give it a try sometime later..I also noticed the strict compliance in terms of syllabic units..However if you'll take a look again at the rhyme pattern which is abbcbccaccbcbba, I think the 3rd and 6th B werent adhering to the rhyme pattern. If you notice the past tense of conceal dint rhyme with feel..

    I have been doing some fighting with this form,but think you have done an excellent job here, especially with the ending, i think it was a great closing. Nice work.

    Haha Luna, Facade master is a he, whilst the one he was lying to would be a she. Eeps, sorry for the confusion girl! XP
