Death to all who refuse to follow...

What Evil Brings
by  A Walk In Verse

.
A demon thrives from the ancient of times,
Lighting his way to the present.
.
Mesmerizing all who are brought to dwell
Upon his twisted barbaric perceptions.
.
Looking towards the east this evil one seeks,
A creed of his venomous deeds;
……Systematically rising are his teachings of hell
……Like the sun upon the open sea.
.
He requires the death of all who fail
In the compulsion of what he preaches;
……Many misled from his heretical spell
……As he deceives in the name of his king.
.
And if you refuse his spoon fed news
Your death with certainly follow;
……A slit to your throat,
……With blunt knife strokes;
…………Into your grave
………………As a martyr.

.

  1. What is the name and artist of that picture? It reminds me of the time I went to Washington D.C. and the art galleries I visited. I love the old paintings and masters. Why do SOME poems have to be so cryptic?
    Nice post.
