Demonic Dance

by Maple Tree   Apr 17, 2012


Feeling the demons
tapping upon my
beating heart,

like a rhythmic drum-

A voodoo dance
that I myself can
not translate,

darkness scowls-

My prison becomes
a tattoo- markings
of a mystery, etched
upon my soul....

    ^^ creeeeppyyy...I find that I'm starting to like some dark poems from certain people because the words you use with them are so interesting....

    Darkness scowls..LOVED that line! perfect word! It really brings darkness to life, in a bitter mean way...

    That last stanza was amazing as always, your way of expressing ANYTHING always has some sort of poetic beauty to it! And this was supposed to be dark! LOL I find beauty in all of your poems!
