Four Horses

By Equinox Asylum

Addiction horses snort and snarl
I am a casualty of war
My famine heart beats rapidly
Death is at my door
Bring pestilence on more

The apocalypse of hope begins
In the final days of soul stampeding
I pay the wages of sin
I am trampled in the charge of iniquity

  • A former member wrote: words like this are what keep me here."I am a casualty of war" this embodies all that i love about little, powerful pieces of poetry:like a chipped piece of a painting, vivid and beautiful. i adored this, from the title to the last powerfully placed word.
