Hide and Seek. [Acrostic]

by ASPHYXIATED   Apr 20, 2007


Homicidal thoughts occupying his troubled mind,
Indifferent to reason he'll slaughter every single child,
Demonized and wary he sets out on his spree,
Expecting nothing less than a cold blooded victory.

An agonizing childhood is what he did endure,
Narcissistic parents constantly beating him to the floor,
Deranging his mind till sanity was no more.

Said self righteous killer is roaming the neighborhood,
Eager to fill play pens with dark crimson blood,
Enfants lying quietly in a forever deepening sleep,
Killer quietly searching; Playing hide and seek.

Lisa Westlake.

    That was really good, sweetie.
    I liked no matter what anyone else says. =]
    Your words were well-chosen and your emotion was very well-shown.
    Your imagery was as if I was right there watching it happen. It was amazing.

    "Enfants lying quietly in a forever deepening sleep"
    Shouldn't it be infants?

    "Killer quietly searching; Playing hide and seek"
    Last line completely blew me away.

    This is beautifully written.
    The flow is flawless throughout, the imagery is shocking-it creates very vivid pictures and yet at the same time it is used so elegantly.
    Word choice was a pleasure to read, and the ending hit me hard, I thought it was very intense.
