Pandemonium (& Get to know the author #1)

I wanted to go into a little more detail for this next poem so that you all could have a chance to get to know the person behind the poems.  Below are two variations of my new poem, Pandemonium.  The difference between the two, however, is the spacing of the line-breaks.  I wanted to show you all what effect of such a small change can have as well as the level of thought I put into the poetry I write for this blog.  I hope you enjoy – and please feel free to let me know which variant you prefer 🙂

Version 1:
“I cut at myself until all that remains
is a demon king’s skull with dead, gray eyes
that have long-since lost their lovely luster
as gifts to those who’re undeserving.”

Version 2:
“I cut at myself
until all that remains
is a demon king’s skull
with dead, gray eyes
that have long-since lost
their lovely luster
as gifts to those
who’re undeserving.”
