O how my heart aches, I can scarce bear the sharp pain
Of interminable longing and wistful dreams;
My eyes mist over with warm self-pitying tears
As I recall how love lay dying in my arms.
My life is a sad empty desert of nothing,
A meaningless vale of friendless tear-drenched sorrow.
Why, O God, must I struggle through life so alone,
Without the comfort of e'en one companion?
But soft! I dimly hear a ringing of a bell -
Perhaps my heartfelt prayers will be answered this night.
Almost fearfully I look through the sad window
And see my long-lost mother standing at the door.
"What the fuck do you want, you ugly stinking slut?"
I yell out before turning the hosepipe on her,
Sending the fat cow sprawling on her cellulite arse.
Is the ending too harsh?

yes.
your ending is not only harsh...it is actually uncalled for...no matter what your mother did to you in the past, she does not deserve the kind of words that you have written here...she is still your mother and you wouldn't be alive today, no matter what your circumstance if it was not for her...so, your ending is not extra nice as you say...your attitude must be the reason why you are alone...you don't deserve anyone... -
maybe you should try drugs

hey edna
i'd give this a 6 on a scale of 10, the last stanza had some shock value. i saw you commented on your own poem, it appeared your intention was to get others to make a comment, but if you want comments why not comment on other peoples poems (not mine necessarily) then they in turn would return more comments on your work. but i sense that would be beneath you. you think your so mucher hipper, and chic than the rest of the poets here, why bother when your so much more talented. thats just my opinion but i think there's a lot of poets here on sharepo that are as good as you if not better.

hey edna
my grammer? i didn't know you were such a prim and proper grade school teacher. it also seems you've avoided my response, why do you expect comments but don't leave any?
