Beware the shards, shattered en masse

Splintered fragments, broken glass

Fractured pieces, glimmered fright

One bite of the apple, was evil’s delight

Her rapturous stare, dug deeper within

He was caught in the fractals, reflected again

The sins of the man, he mirrored, you see

No longer innocent, the victim was he

She promised, to let him go free, on a whim

Then snickered, she knew twas the end of him

She showed him no mercy, she thrived on disdain

The sweeter his demons, the deadlier his pain

She was calmly sleeping, dreaming

While inside her shell, she was silently steaming

Dormant no longer, she awakens, and sighs

The fire grows stronger, as she opens her eyes

A rumbling sound, makes the earth quake and shutter

A roar from her, bellowing, in the wake of a sputter

Her fiery heart, can hold back no longer

As her anger grows deeper, ever stronger

She releases the demons, kept in her shell

Unleashing the fires, from the gates of hell

Innocence,

that place

only a child’s

imagination knows.

Where the angels

and the demons

draw upon them,

a daily discovery

Of right

and wrong

of weak

and strong

 

Do they belong?

 

Innocence

that place

we left

long ago

Friday Fantasy ~ Where Demons Play – #poetry

Do I dare tempt my fate
With iron that blocks the way
Yes, I shall open up the gate
Let my imagination stray

Reflected in the waters there

Into the hidden secrets where

My inner thoughts do now betray
Kept shrouded in these stones
Where the Orphic demons play
Imprisoned in a vast unknown

Friday Fantasy ~ Judgement Day – #dark #poetry

She was always cranky, when she was tired

Always felt worthless, and so uninspired

No one would listen, to her painful plight

Not even the sunset, would kiss her goodnight

So she plotted anew, gave him just one more chance

He ignored her again, this was not happenstance

The time had now come, with malicious desire

To offer herself, to the one with the fire

The flames grew taller, surrounded her being

And darkness engulfed her, with sparks, ever freeing

She welcomed the demons, she’d kept tucked away

She knew she would need them, on this, judgment day
