The Devil's Feast

by Sean Dohr   May 21, 2006


Our world is moving backward,
fighting wars from in the past.
Worrying about biological warfare,
when our president should be gassed.

Slitting wrists is now in style,
among the youth of this decade.
It's like your life can't be complete,
without drugs and getting laid.

Even child abuse is on the rise,
sick parents who like to molest.
In order to become a parent,
you should have to pass a test.

People even question faith,
within the Christian world,
just because deranged priests,
molested little boys and girls.

There are so many idiots,
among the world today.
So many ignorant optimists,
who send our views astray.

I'm so sick of all their lies,
and all their forced beliefs.
I can't be happy with this world,
so I'll partake in the devil's feast.

~Almost every comment so far has said something about the use of the word gay. I am using it the proper way in my poem, not the slang/derogatory way. Gay=happy/joyous.~

    I have to say, I agree with you, especially on the slitting wrists and religious part. I made a similiar poem like this. Though yours I must admit...is better. Great job!

    I think I left a comment once before but anyway. I shall leave another one.

    I actually loved this poem. I thought it was creative and Unique and your wording choices, Well they speak for themselves. IT was truelly an amazing poem. The Flow was awesome, along with how it stayed in rythym..However..I think what made this poem, rather diffrent was how you weren't afraid to take real life issues and turn them into an Amzing piece of Poetry. I enjoyed this one Stanaza: 'There are so many idiots,
    among the world today.
    So many stupid optimists,
    that are always acting gay.'
    I thought it stood out to me the most. Anyway. None-the-less. Great Powerful Poem Dear. :)

    I agree that the 3rd line in the first stanza needs a little adjustment. Other than that, this poem is great. The last stanza was very powerful and it's not the kind of thing you read very often on this site. I think it's one of the best poems I've read on here. Thanks for sharing this
