12+ Violence

I kinda have something wrong up there, but if you don't like, then don't read kthxbye

Ah, the sinkage of teeth
into the soft flesh of your sister.
The taste of her sweaty, salty skin stings your tongue
but her fingers are digging through your arm

You won't give up--
you can't give up, 
you are the dominant.
Your teeth grind deeper

--until you're at the point of ripping her skin off.
Blood splatters your face
and her shrill scream sounds, but you ignore it
"Mooooooommmm!"



*I know there are a few errors in grammar and punctuation, but think back to the time when you were younger, you didn't know the proper usage of was/were. This poem is based on young siblings brawling, so

Hey...:D
Here I am, I promised to review! ;) Just took me a little while to get other things done. ;)

Well.... :D haha when I said I would come over here and write a review I definitely wasnt expecting that. ;) haha
I do sorta like it though! not something I usually read, but then... there is a first time for everything right? ;) haha

"until you're at the point of ripping her skin off
blood splatters your face" should be a comma between these two lines! ;)
"blood splatters your face
and her shrill scream sounds," I would take out the "and" just doesnt flow very nice with it in there! I think it would make it a little more intense to take it out too. ;) its like its rushing on to the next thing that happens if that makes sense! :D

Thats really all I have to say! ;) Great job. You have a talent for writing different things, that usually arent addresses...:D haha
Good luck with editing! :D

Well that was kind of...I wasn't expecting that to end that way 0.0 It was pretty freaking creepy, I'll give you that. The idea of cannibalism and torture to the extreme such as this usually turns me off, but you got me with the last line.

There seem to be some grammar errors, but since this seems to be a one-time, real quick thing, I'll let most of them slide. The one thing that kept bothering me was the first line where there should be a space after the comma. It might be intentional but I'm thinking that it's a typo? Another thing I'd suggest is putting quotation marks around the final line to make it clear that it's a line being spoken.

This is definitely different and something I've never seen here before, so I'll give you one for originality. I rate this a 6/10. It was well written, but the subject was just squicky for me. Don't take anything personally, though! Keep on writing!

Lol, the style is meant to be like that. It's supposed to be immature
and the cannibalism/torture is the bickering and fighting between siblings

Ah okay. Thanks for clearing that up!

No problem



Someday, everything is going to go right for you, and it will be so wonderful you won't even know what to do.
