Demented Fairy Tales (Acrostic)

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   Oct 13, 2008


Dishonest with every breath you take,
Ever lying in the morning, in bed, awake,
Memorizing each word I have spoken,
Even lines mumbled, untrue, or broken.
Never understanding the words I've told.
Tormented by meanings you can't unfold.
Enticing definitions beyond beliefs.
Disobeying the comfort of reliefs.

Frightening tales in spoken word,
Aligning memories never heard.
Intriguing the minds of children so small.
Reeling them in, yes abducting them all.
You better be careful with what I say,

Telling these fables will end in a bad way.
All children lured in, to stories so dim.
Leaving their souls to a place so grim.
Evil lurks in the fables, the fairy tales read.
So, you best remember all I have said.

    This poem was very unique and I enjoyed reading it. I like your choice of vocabulary in each line, it really gives effect to your poem. The title is an eye catcher and I love the ending. 5/5
