Soul Seeker's Fate

Soul seeker's fate

A surreal trip through a hall of mirrors
Distorted irrevocably warped,
visions of the elephant  man.

Distended frame ,bowed and bent
Wizened creature life force spent
Vile technician of pain. 

Ripping hearts and souls usunder 
Dancing on graves,
The Soul Seeker on the attack.

Bitter denizen of the shadows
Sucker of the vital vein.
Rejuvenation of the youth he lacks

Just a couple...

of minor tweaks. 6.1 has a space where there shouldn't be any. [usunder]
And denizen needs not be capitalised. Nicely done, but needs a little more suspense. ~ Gee

Dear Lou,

I really do like the premise for this piece. This is one bad-assed dude! But I agree with Sir Gee that more suspense would be nice. my favs:

Ripping hearts and souls usunder
Dancing on graves,
The Soul Seeker on the attack.

Bitter denizen of the shadows
Sucker of the vital vein.
Rejuvenation of the youth he lacks

Love ya,

Cat (and eddy!)

Thank you, the soul seeker is a fallen angel, and the protagonist of my novel.

Much Love Lou
