Murdering Mary

Murdering Mary

In the atrocious moments of murdering
And the aftermath of bloods display
The coagulation of truth and lies
Befuddles the Sherlocks wide array
Intestines spell Mary across the wall
And floorboards smell of rodents decay
The heartbeat of Lucifer's ruthless disciples
Sends angels everywhere to herald the day
And while eating the livers of twisted daughters
The murderers enjoy tasting the tears and salted pain
Then,
The final moment of disembowelment
Is there to be toasted
And shredded into appetizers
Waiting for Mary's blood sauce
To fill the gravy boats
And roasted...

Tony Taylor

Ye gods, Tony...this is grim! And not a little bloodthirsty!!

Leaving aside the, frankly, disturbing imagery and the (even more disturbing!) gleeful way you salivate over every tiny detail..
What's particularly impressive about this poem is the strength if the volta ... rather than merely turning direction with this...the single-word line, "Then," stops the reader in her tracks with a dagger to the heart, before moving on to your chilling denouement.

And while eating the livers of twisted daughters

Fantastic line!! ... you are a sick puppy, Taylor...a very sick puppy!!

I love it!!!

I meant it was a captiving addition to the creative art of poetry. It is quite original and his it's own style, it will likely appeal to those persons that more traditional poetry does not.

Best of Luck,
