Crimson clouds hover over the land of chilling silence
Lifeless battlefields, where Death stepped in to kill the violence
Fissure's have split the plains into 6 miniature islands..
An my ears are still ringin from the sound of missiles n sirens
I'm a lone ranger: truly am one in a billion
Walking though a ghost town made up of crumblin buildins
I see guns, and I once thought they the brilliant ;
But suicide has ruined lives and fucked up the civilians
The city looks like its suffered for months..
Survivors just scurry in gutters, lookin for lunch
Puddles of blood : Frozen soldiers stuck in the mud
God's tried to throw snow down to cover them up
Have I sprouted wings? Have I come from above?
To this widow of a city, once again lookin for love
It's just in a slump, and I'm equipped with the power to change
So I count down to the day, and only hours remain..
Til the corpses from the street wake up, shrouded in rage
They're cookin up a storm with a thousand ounces of hate
I look around at the place, truly wonder what its done to my mind
I've went from the sharperst-tool-in-the-box to the bluntest of knives
So if you want some advice..
Stop reading this note, then kill yourself, or run for your life
Coz if you dont: you will continue to suffer tonight
As the world is falling apart right in front of your eyes..

This was sick. Great concept. Wording was brilliant.

Yeah, I'd basically echo what Calibra said...I thought this was awesome, effortless multis and great vocab knowledge which meant that you weren't limited in what you were saying, some of your word selection was poignant:

"Survivors just scurry in gutters, lookin for lunch"

Don't think anyone else picked that line out but linguistically that was a perfectly constructed line, in other words...it killed it.

"To this widow of a city, once again lookin for love"

Great metaphor, worded brilliantly...I think the whole concept was fantastic and you were consistant to a high standard throughout with a unique and progressive idea...

1st July, but we probably have the open mic of the month already...and if Hanging sees it might even welcome you to the club Cool

the way you just seemed to throw words around effortlessly is just insane...seems to come easy...

"Crimson clouds hover over the land of chilling silence
Lifeless battlefields, where Death stepped in to kill the violence"

opening just had so much to it, how could anyone not want to keep reading...

"To this widow of a city, once again lookin for love"

that was my favorite line in the whole piece...imagery and wording just seems to come so natural

amazing piece..
