This is my poem. Please read it and tell me what you think. Note: it's really long.

Reign of Oil

There is no color
The world is dark
Black skies linger on and on till they become earth
To the edge all I see are mountains of coal
A sulfur haze blurs all sight
The only light, a red glow, floats up from deep valleys below
Sounds are immediately consumed by shadow
Black storms forever litter the earth with oil and ash
The earth constantly groans and quakes in anger

I sit chained atop the highest peak—alone to my thoughts
Arms and legs bound, I am forever in darkness
From the crimson depths I hear cries of slander
There is no water for even the clouds mock me
Oil rains down on me
I drink—it is bitter to my tongue and anxious in my stomach
