The grotesque way in which the estate attorney mangled my husband's will has resulted in extra work on my part which could have been avoided, and leaves me emotionally-devastated and wanting to puke nails. :mad:

The origin of the word grotesque is the Italian grotta, meaning «cave», and the two related words, la grotesca and grotesco. These latter were coined to describe a certain kind of ornamental painting first discovered during excavations in the late fifteenth century.
Looks like grotesque is actually a form of art.

Laden with melancholy,
flirting with the solace of death;
my thoughts are often turning
to ideas of the grotesque.
edit: Not a sentence, but...Well, there it is.

He knew that snarl, that familiar sound. As he looked up, he saw her mouth, covered with foam, devouring his reputation in a grotesquely ravenous manner, as the hyena does a carcass.

As he drove by the accident, he noticed the charred twisted remains of the man who had been removed from the wreckage. He was mezmorized by how grotesque the lifeless body appeared, yet he could not bring himself to look away.

Ok. I know you are spoken for, but damn, I'm in love.
As far as the OP's request:
Staring back at what she once thought was a handsome man, all she could see was the grotesque nature of his cold, heartless personality.
