Inde Deus Abest
By maipenrai
04 July 2006
for the oppressed of this world,it seems evil is timeless

WARNING! DISTURBING

There is a darkness about this place
that is beyond despair
it seeps into the soul and
corrupts the spirit.

the walls stained dark
with the blood of countless victims,
upturned chairs and shackles
electric leads hang from sockets

you can almost hear the cries of
Mothers watching their Children
being raped and abused
or a Fathers anguished moans
as his wife is gangbanged
before his very eyes,
his Children subjected to the electric.
this place,this place
where God does not exist
Inde Deus Abest.

powerful

there are lots of things we don't care to think about or acknowledge. it doesn't mean they don't happen. and maybe we should all think about them, because if we did, we couldn't help but care. 
 
something might then happen to change them. 
 
thank you

Thank you for a powerful but as you say disturbing poem. This evokes everything that is wrong in so many countries, and is a reason we should be thankful to life our charmed lives. 
 
Truly great writing.. 
 
Thanks and best wishes

Thanks for your review.  
 
I avoid subject matters such as this, because it makes me feel so helpless and impotent. 
 
An excellent and compelling read, 
 
Brian.
thanks
