In a fearless world, we had a fright.
The peaceful warrior came to fight.

He sheath his sword and stabbed my brother.
Holstered his gun and shot my mother.

Then one day the silent monk spoke his mind.
"I have been too nice, so I'll be kind"

The monk without legs walked to town.
The monk in the sky decided to look down.

The blind monk saw his target.
The peaceful warrior did not see it .

"How could he do this just for fun?!"
Although undecided, the monks knew the battle was won.

The closed their eyes and charged the field.
The peaceful warrior that decided to fight, he was struck, forced to yield.

The four monks returned to their place.
To a dream they shall not follow, but decided to chase.

This was a good poem but I think the rhyming could do with a little work.

He sheath his sword and stabbed my brother.
Holstered his gun and shot my mother.


Holstered means put away, unless you knew that already and it was intentional as a metaphor or something. I don't know, I'm not really a read between the lines person.

Also, you do know about the 2 to 1 rule, right? For every item that you post you have to review to other pieces.

Keep writing =).
I've got birds in my ear and a devil on my shoulder, got a phone in the other and I can't get a hold of her. What's a crush to do?

This is pretty good :D Keep writing!
This is a story about a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world.

In every single letter. In every single word. There will be a hidden message about a boy who loves a girl.
