[Mark D. Chevalier]

The burning and unending hatred that leads to the corruption of our souls. I too harbored much of it for my father over the years. Fortunately I let it go before it consumed me. You captured it very well, and I enjoyed the way you slid each word down the page, not an easy task on this website. Nicely Done!

Nice layout, gives it a visual edginess.

Simple and effective, the intensity grows with each stanza, but never goes OTT. I like that you've kept it simple. I know I can go a bit crazy with such subjects, but you've done a great job!

Do I sense self-loathing? When you mentioned the "H" word you started speaking my language. Hating oneself can have a positive and negative effect. It could cause you to become a better person, or it can drive you to dispicable self-pity.

Unfortunately, hate is like acid...it not only destroys the object on which it is poured but also the vessel in which it is stored. I do hope you have worked through these feelings by this time in your life. Great rant, though.

I don't think you like this particular person very much. That's what I gathered from the poem.

(I'm witty. Good poem. Bitter. Grr.)
