Gods Musician: Grave Digger

Member since 2003 · Posted 28 Jul 2003 · 7 comments

Ah, whispering wind... speak your secrets and my beak shall cry out in song to deliver the riddle. I am your musician, with but a fiddle to lure sheep to fire. Heat causing them to sweat... But alas, they won't let me shave their wool. So I left them in puddles of blood. I became a wolf, no longer a saint... Paint covers the walls with a shade of crimson: My disease to please wandering eyes, looking down from the skies. Each lamb dies... Every soul tries only to fail and wail in horror as I curse them, spitting phlegm in their face: The mark of cain. Black rain has descended my brush rusted, dull father, is your stomach full?

some nice lines, a bit schizophrenic skipping from one line to the next without reference to any central theme.

the simple rhyming is not really needed the structure is good as it is

I thought this was going to be a celebration of the 80s metal band 'Grave Digger'. Fuck you.

You know, you've just revealed that you actually go through my archives, I'm amazed. But anyway, I've never heard of that band, and if I'm going to write something about a band or a pop singer, it would most likely be a parody about Britney Spears Wardrobe and her false claims concerning her "virginity". But I doubt I'd ever get around to that anytime soon.

Not to dishearten you old bean, but I was actually searching for all poemes with 'God', 'Angel', 'Love' or 'Above' in their titles in order to complete the Love-Above Liste. Cheers! -10-
