Kingdom Of The Black Hole: Act 2

Kingdom Of The Black Hole: Act 2

 

I woke up in a world were the only words people heard,

Were words of hate,

anger,

rape,

violence,

misogyny

and his words

The ship is sailing away from the dessert,

It seems to be invisible

Invisible to the naked eye

Nobody moves

They seem content in this darkness

This is the last ship to sail

Calls the giant sized serpent

Your last chance to leave this island

The voice seems to be mute

Mute to the naked ear

We have missed it in our haste.

This is our home now,

An island is not a home.

We are the lost entities of time,

Trapped by the kingdom of the black hole,

His kingdom.

He sits on the throne,

Women killers give him their bodies

We must walk with the angels,

He cannot take the purity from their bodies.

Great poem Richard. There is a typo that stopped me in my tracks (dessert) but i got around it! I enjoy reading your work. Just be mindful of those little typo's.
Keep writing...
