A new working in my favourite genre - thoughts?

A White Light.

A shallow grave uncovered,

A mangled body of blood,

A bone twisted and torn,

A life washed away in the flood.

An eye mirrored in torture,

A grip tightened in foul play,

A mind innocent now strained,

A face shoved in the clay.

A vein severed by blade,

A place cursed and forgotten,

With thoughts it did rotten.

The story now has an end,

Stop digging he just might,

The soul has bounced forward,

Towards a shiny white light.

    Very dark theme! I still remember this was posted few months ago.

    Its very descriptive of a real plot. Service as a universal message of the inhumanity of torturing human bodies, in any perspective under any claims: political, racial, religious, etc. Its universal because the site in question could be anywhere at any time. Such brutality may be seen even amongst a family members, motivated by vile reasons.

    Very well penned! that is for sure, IMHO.

    It is rather macabre and doesn't lighten the mood. For this reason it is not entertaining. Nor does it delight with it's dark message. I should focus on happier themes.
