Literature Text

A slip of lucid liquid lust,
one drop on callous earthy crust,
serves unintentional charade,
the way their bodies shift and wade.

Into the dark Hell's haunting grounds
that single drop like hammer pounds,
a whiplash injury for those
unable still to cast first stones.

The livid living dead will use
derogatory words as curse,
for all undead whose blood's intact
and seal enslaving, evil pacts.  

Angry arise from fiery graves,
utopian perfection's fakes,
forming a dance fore Devil's shore,
their partner's soul in much dismay.
And time will come for us to say
"I'd kill to live like that" no more...
For 's poetry contest:

write a poem (however long, or short to preferance) using these words as the model: unintentional, derogatory, perfection, and whiplash. you dont have to use those exact words, but at least something close. also the poem must include the phrase; I'd kill to live like that.

Inspired by a song...
