Oblivion

by NyellMoonlight   Sep 3, 2008


Ornamented with purple flowers
obscure silhouette, unearthly,
rested above the spirals of clouds.
I cherished a frozen tear,
crucified between the spectacles,
for the last day of the Apocalypse
enacts behind the gates of Eden.

Ninth death echoed
within every grain of sand,
for our deity was a cat,
amphibious totem
spotted with the blood of demons.

Ornamented with purple flowers
obscure silhouette, unearthly,
poisoned thunderstorms of anathemas.
I succumbed to the last keystroke,
locked twixt the ghouls of a golden cage,
with chimeras that infected the abyss
smudged across your paradise.

    I must say that I am impressed by this poem. Idea is amazing, simply absolutely refreshing and creative. I really like your metaphors, I took time to think about each of them separately and they together formed picture in my mind which captivated me. I like complexness of this piece, very cleverly written. I also admire ending because I think that twist there was very effective. Second stanza is somehow to me the most powerful one, it contains core of this poem in my opinion and every word in it fascinated me. I just think that your work here was fantastic, also the fact that every description is followed by another, even more powerful one is truly breathtaking because they all together made a brilliant chain of words and pictures, this poem. I truly enjoyed in this one and read it couple of times. I also like your word choice, though I wouldn't describe this poem as random.
