Carnage
By Anybody_Killette
Porcelain faces,
forceful kiss,
Blood red tears,
you just dismiss.
Blackened tongues,
wrapping around,
your sweet lungs,
decreasing the sound.
Bar steel cages,
painted with fear,
paying your wages,
to see each tear.
Bloody slaughter,
faces in dismay,
that is your daughter,
on display.
Watch her suffer,
Take in each scar,
only making her tougher,
as she grips the bar.
Cages around,
Blood-curdling Scream,
But you like the sound,
As it kills her dream.
Whips lashing,
on porcelain skin,
teeth gnashing,
with each new sin.
Closed eyes,
waiting for new pain,
Darkened skies,
with acid rain.
Laughter filling,
each newly risen tent,
more tears spilling,
Refusing to repent.
Look at that barrier,
as light shines out the holes
It is a carrier,
of all their tortured souls.
Ringmaster in the center,
with a big white smile,
Forcing you to enter,
Making it all worthwhile..

Very sensitive subject. Though I liked it.

I like this one... and I've written things in the same style before, as well. I've found that the rhymes tend to make ideas seem forced, and that these work well for humorous poems, but conveying a clear idea through ABAB structure can be difficult.
