Murder Of Violencehood by OMA4U(m): 9:03pm On Feb 14, 2015
Murder of Violencehood

Silently, I banged the portal of the god of peace
But before, my warmest homage I did pay
To him and to those who long sand did kiss
Before I said the words that seemed never did say

At the threshold over the frame my feet stood
My eyes closed, leaving the mind to wander
To roam, to form a mental image of him as it could:
Halos hovered around him, I saw when left to meander

I banged and banged and wide the door threw open
A ceremonial banquet amid merry and revels grew
Although as anticipated, a new odd path was broken
So strange, a rain of blood flooded like dense drops of dew

In the castle where the god of peace did reign
Savage murderers jollied in slaying throat
As though a needle pierced, my heart felt his pain
As bullets riddled his chest, left him crimson coat

I sought to see this god to retort unanswered questions
I sought and sought but no god ever lived there once
Then I asked why the castle made for peace intentions
I found an answer worth to be shared and share for years

The blood that washes the land gushes from Violence's heart
This lesson may leave the sagest in still silent mood -
if we could lay arm in arm and never from our brothers part
And in unison, vow to live in the murder of violencehood

Thanks boss. It's an honour to have you here, sir. That rhyme undergoes alteration. It might still be sued to court of editing, even though I have edited it countless times.

Pls, quote out the undecipherable lines. The phone I'm using at the moment lumps them together.

Another awesome piece by an awesome writer. This young man is an embodiment of ingenuity. What makes him tick? What gears, what levers, what machinery work in his head? All meshing perfectly; oiled by brilliance.
