Her feet stuck
In mediocrity
Gangrene took over
Killing excellence
Her eyes got infected
With greed
Blindness was imminent
Darkening light
Her hands grabbed
Rich filth
Losing grip
Gradually
Her ears were spoiled
By Siren’s slime
Deafening
Reality’s thunder
Her womb collapsed
In emptiness
Spitting out
Her mutant soul
……………………………………..
As the moon rose high
Her corpse
Was devoured
By me
Giving back
Life
To the equal
She once was
Such a dark poem Miss Ayesha..tried to grasp the meaning behind it as i know you always hide hidden messages in your poems n writings..am confused a lil with this one..loved the vids even though i dont understand the words of the songs..lol
ReplyDeleteLara Fabian, is one of my favorite artists. She can sing anything with a passion only to be equaled by a few others. And i love her ability to sing in many different languages as well. Her French and Italian for instance r flawless.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the 'meaning' of this poem. Just let the atmosphere of it sneak into ur system, triggering whatever emotion is available.
U got one thing right tho: It's a dark one, filled with anger, rage and sadness. But in the end there was a tiny ray of light eh?
It's quite a prodigious leap from "devouring her corpse" to "tiny ray of light", Ayesha. I enjoyed the venom with which the words were arrayed; it's a wonderful tonic to the feel-good pap that inundates us on a daily basis.
ReplyDelete"the feel-good pap". Caramba, if i had known this perfect way of defining lame poetry, for sure i would have stolen it from u, and used it the time i wrote "Static Poetry".
