Tempting... An Angel?

by Alexandra Jade Brewer   Feb 2, 2008


Can you tempt an angel
Make her turn your way?
Change her outlook on life
Make her your new prey?

I'll burst your bubble now
An angel can't be tempted
She wont turn her face and
From no rules she'll be exempted

No an angel can't be tempted
But an angel can be changed
Through a lot of determination
Her color and wings can be rearranged

The devil's an angel in disguise
Once given the ability to ignore
But tempted by love and its power
She soon wanted so much more

Your angel becomes her devil
Temptation takes her away
Giving into the joys of life
Knowing this devil's here to stay

    This doesn't really do much for me, perhaps because the words in this are a little too simple? They don't create enough visuals that dark poems usually have. Perhaps in future be wary of that.

    I did like the idea of tempting an angel, the title pulled me into this poem because it made me want to see what the content is written on, so good title.

    I would change lines like
    "I'll burst your bubble now"
    It's more of everyday talk, not very image creating or thought provoking at all.

    However your theme is still very solid, so I'll give this one a 4/5.

    Another great piece, you really are a very talented writer :)

    The last stanza is definitely my favorite, and though I found some parts a bit choppy in flow, that could have just been the way I read it.

    5/5
