Devine Wind (Sonnet)

by Mr. Darcy   Jun 8, 2009


Lights spark and fragment on a salty sea.
Questions flitter behind strained, tired eyes,
Whilst a crooked blade twists inside of me.
Oh so dark, the venom seeps from his lies.

Infecting these wounds that silently scream,
Paralysed emotions claw to escape.
A seething demon with a vengeful gleam,
Malice now takes an horrific new shape.

She stares right through me, reflecting my rage,
Shrieking morals command my head to explode.
Deceit rotates, then crumples like a page,
My wake of destruction scorching the road.

Your flicking serpents tongue blacks out my life
Come now raven, peck these eyes from your wife

    what a collab :)

    Infecting these wounds that silently scream,

    What a picture this paints for the minds eye. Very dark. Very different.
    I enjoyed reading this piece.
    Good job to both of you.
    Take Care

    Michael,

    Although this poem is very creative and cleverly written, something is off...I cannot put a finger on it..maybe the use of"he"and "she" idk..I think you have to look at it again to see if it is really coherent.

    I will rate it a 5/5 but hope you will take a second look at it.

    I will give your friend a different comment, off course, ha ha.

    (( hugs)) xx

    5/5 Ingrid

    ps: I saw the thread, you must have been bored beyond belief;)
