the slaughter of the innocent,
passes by the ignorant
no one knows, no one listens,
faint murmurs of the wind begins
a new life is wrought,
but nothing can be taught
for when there is no innocence,
there cant be any penchance
for learning, or for knowing,
i look upon the change,
and know that no one can gauge
the depths of such an event
for it is but the slaughter of an innocent!

nice one rush .. as usual .. :).. high time u resign from tcs and take up writing as a full time profession .. so, r u trying to convey s'thing specfic by this poem??? ;)
hehe.. well, i guess its a lil ambiguous, but since v were talkin abt innocence or d lack of it(when i wrote this one)..
its supp to say that once innocence is dead, a new life is born that does not seek knowledge(is not curious to learn) ..hmm thats supp to be a bad thing, don ask me why ;) ;)
Don't hate me for this but, let me give you a bit of constructive criticism.
So, the poem has a great premise and good word usage. You are making a mistake though that I myself do all the time..
Meter. Rhyme used to be important for poetry but hasn't been in forever. Meter though still is. A poem doesn't quite flow as well from the lips if the meter goes a bit off and here, it is very off..
hey there, thanks :)
u know wat, i spent like 2 mins on it coz i was scrappin in ma friends book and made up somethin.. and since i love puttin up stuff on d blog, thot mite as well ;)
