Bridesmaid of Sores

Crawling through alleys of garbage and sin

Yellow eyed gazing fine razor sharp thin

Looking for sinful little painted up w****s

Streetwalking temptress bridesmaid of sores

 

Blood lingerie on boney black splinters

Broken spine tortured body that withers

Death curses crawl from her festering sores

B***h patron saint of harlots and w****s

 

Pray to the wretched sick misstress decay

Black scab disease brothels of rotting bouquets

Queen of disease vessels Goddess of W****s

Streetwalking temptress bridesmaid of sores

 

W***e Goddess disease putrid agent of death

I pray I beseech with my very last breath

Send me another derelict drug addict w***e

Like so many sick Harlots you sent me before

 

Shooting black tar into strung out black arms

W***e Goddess instincts w***e Goddess charms

Strung out on mescaline and white roxi shards

Lost little girl the w***e Goddess discards

 

Screaming black harlot white into the night

Razor cut candy flesh by morning's pale light

Squeal for me bleed for me you sick little w***e

Streetwalking temptress Bridesmaid of sores

this is a piercing look at the seedy side of the life of junky prostitutes and drug addicts in general. drug addiction is a w***e in itself. this is so well described it made me wonder how you know so intimately the deepest darkest side of this social pariah. obviously you have met or seen this thing up close and personal or know one who has. all i can say about this other than what i already have is .....wow....i have seen the gutter, and you have described it to a tee.... awesome and compelling write

Thank you quinfinn

[quinfinn]

welcome

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is realy ugly!

as it should be considering what it is depicting..the kind of life, the despair, the not having a way out from that life...

utter detachment from those in society who look down upon, frown upon and ignore.


this is my favorite piece from you...

love it.

thought about mary magdelene when i was reading it...


people's judgemental attitudes can cripple others.

Thank you jacob

This one reads aloud very well. Dark and real. A good rhythm. Leaves me to wonder what took you back?

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank You Chris

[Chris]

yeah, I know - life as we live it...

welcome man

Such a sad, sad piece of writing. Lost soul squeezing the last life from lost souls. Darkness is here. No thought of light just scabby dimness. The fact that it is written well makes it worse. Like arc lights on a sewer scene. Take one is all you get because take two finds them all dead.

Well written and well portrayed and now I need a shower.

[Baby Ricochet]

thank you. You scented soap

[fireblossom]

Complete... and raw... at its best... and worst.
Good write, BR.

[Baby Ricochet]

thank you Mr G

Oh my nerve. She sounds...delightful. ;-) This is actually a pretty scathing commentary on society, when you think about it. Scratch its surface and find its blights. Walk down any city street in America, take a wrong turn, and run into her. Well done, Baby...

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Kimmer. I always liked this one.

[KAOlmsted]

My pleasure.

[Steven]

You know I like your use of rhyme, mostly because it adds a sense of mockery to your poetry. It's like sarcasm towards life.

"Razor cut candy flesh by morning's pale light"

See, that right there--it's Halloween in a line. Nice write.

[Baby Ricochet]

I hadn't thought of that. Cool. Thank you for reading bridesmaid of sores steven.

too well, don't stay long in that spot,but range, and wind,velocity,force and angle,are great multipliers , especially at night.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you for reading Brides made of Sores lee Von Oleef

[Corset]

aye it does, it's very creepy and spooky, rhyming is tight, sores are festering , yup it's all in here! very dark and yeah and more than just kinda gross, lol, great job.

[Baby Ricochet]

Why thank you Corset. I feel another one of these coming on, or it could be gas, I'm not sure.

[Corset]

lol! oh no...why am I silently hoping for gas?

[Baby Ricochet]

HA!

[Mic]

Very creepy, Ric. Your meter, mostly the dactyls, give it the chanting effect... which I like.

Very well done. Am probably more impressed with your attention to structure here than the actual content itself. Takes work! Again... good job!

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you for noticing. This one did take work. Thank you so much for reading
