Hells Game (Free verse) by Katie
Borrowed light from the sun, Reflects upon your face, The conflict starts, The blood rushes, Your palms ache, Sweating with pain. This anger is hereditary, But when you met your match, Two souls walked away, Two bodies left to lay 6 feet under it all. All the pain and suffering. You thought you were strong when you where weak, You thought you were warm when you where cold. You proved you would take his life, If he didn't stop being so stock, You shot him straight through his heart. You played the devils game, And for that, Forever there you will stay.

Up the ladder: Bitter as Wormwood
Down the ladder: Masculine

katie's back! there is some nice stuff in here. in the two "You thought you..." lines, you'll want to change the "where"s to "were"s. i like those lines, though. the poem veers from subtle to not so subtle, but it's one of your more solid poems (although what do i know).

katie, in those same lines, you have two more "where"s to change to "were"s.

Strong writing, Katie; I think of two cowboys in a duel, gangs, etc. 'The anger is hereditary' makes me wonder. You gotta keep 'em separated; teufel hunde.

i couldn't agree more! i also think that all of the "o"'s should be changed to katie's signature comment: =-)
the poem would then improve by leaps and bounds.

you men are all under her spell, i think.
