The Vigilante's Prayer
I've lived to tell my tale
I've slept by the fire of broken hearts
I've heard the song of the wooden sparrow
Saw the puppet maker
His eyes gave me a new view
Step back into position
Ready
Aim
wait, I feel the sickness creeping in
I hope for life, a new beginning
Love for a moment
Let my plague sweep him of his feet
A nation 6 feet under
As the children sit a weep
I've slept by the fire of broken hearts
I've heard the song of the wooden sparrow
Saw the puppet maker
His eyes gave me a new view
Step back into position
Ready
Aim
wait, I feel the sickness creeping in
I hope for life, a new beginning
Love for a moment
Let my plague sweep him of his feet
A nation 6 feet under
As the children sit a weep
[b]Congratulations Disillusion_Ment (waggy) for winning the competition. Your poem adhered most to the competition according to the title “The Vigilante’s Prayer”. It was a rant, almost. Devilish as usual your gift is apparent in your words and Gypsy Red, I loved your poem, you have a gift of story-telling. As it is, it was a story not a ‘prayer’ per se. All have their own ways of expressions. I love all the poems and enjoyed them tremendously.Thank you very much for competing, Glynis, Jessica, Danii and Suphomeboi. Hope to see you all again in my next competition.[/b
