The Metal Edge

The Metal Edge

I like Haiku poetry and my favorite band is Metallica so I figured as an interesting exercise I would try to write a haiku style poem using titles of their songs, so here goes, the songs are in Bold letters.

The Metal Edge – A Metallica Haiku

 

Blackened, beaten, bruised

Hit the Lights my inner Fuel

Life is Sad but True

 

Master of Puppets

Cyanide, as we plummet

One poison cometh

 

Dyer’s Eve borrows

A Harvester of Sorrow

King Nothing’s pharaoh

 

Welcome Home closure

Sanitarium’s owner

A No Leaf Clover

 

Escape the construct.

Hardwired to self-destruct

I’m Frantic and fucked

 

Human history

is My Friend of Misery

No Remorse to see

 

We Seek and Destroy

A Breadfan for proper ploy

No Cure to enjoy

 

Oh, Poor Twisted Me

The Outlaw Torn, will flee,

My World cannot be.

 

Confusion wants her

Am I savage? To conjure…

Some Kind of Monster?

 

Do I Dream No More

This Judas Kiss I’ve adorned

Thorns Within my pores

 

Mama Said don’t peep

Just wait Until it Sleeps

Damage Inc. will reap

 

To Live is To Die,

The Day That Never Comes by

The God That Failed sighs

 

The Struggle Within

The Hero of the Day sins

Of Wolf and Man wins

 

The Four Horsemen ride

Even Sweet Amber abides

Their Attitudes high

 

Nothing Else Matters

Through the Never with backers

Borderline swagger

 

Fade to Black inside

The Unnamed Feeling is pride

St. Anger resides

 

Dirty Window blight

Halo on Fire burns bright

To Purify night

 

Then I Disappear

Just a Bullet Away dear,

just Killing Time here

 

For Whom the Bell Tolls

In this Ecstasy of Gold

Pulling Teeth gets old.

 

A Moth Into Flame

Don’t Tread On Me reigns

Creeping Death my game.
