I wrote this poem based on my ex-husband. It always amazed me how incredibly corrupt he could be. This is a poem from my book, "The Dark Times".


Poem Artwork

 

You laugh

At their petty tries

And break the truth
With your trusted lies.
You fear the ones
You love the most
And tear the tons
Of life to ghost.
You hate your loved.
Your path is crooked.
Fate from above
Only knows how wicked.
Through your pain
You speak to the insane
Through your ordained
You keep them named.
This is what it looks
To be worse than them,
Juggling monstrous hooks
Of Ritalin…
The devil himself
Stands in those shoes
How have they felt— 
New? Or very used?
He watches through such eyes of charm,
And speaks through a mouth of lust,
Shares in all our evil harm,
And laughs with a wealth of trust.
He is all, everywhere,
He is none, nowhere…
But when wearing those red shoes,
He is one, within you.

Your verses most powerfully recreate a character sketch, Eden. This is very well-expressed and shared with your readers. Thank you. Love and best wishes,
