[hometext] => a tale of 2 archangels who capture a devil & discover they become that which they dispise
[bodytext] => Here, we have reached the remotest region of the earth A wilderness without footprint Remember what command the Father laid on you. Here is the sinner: nail him to the rock; secure him on this towering summit Fast in the vice-like grip of adamantine chains It was your treasure that he stole, the flowery splendor of all-fashioning fire, And gave to men an offence intolerable for which he now must suffer, Till he be taught to accept sovereignty, for you sinner you will never be released But how can I find heart to lay hands on a god of my own race and cruelly clamp him to this bitter, bleak ravine? What is the use of wasting time in pitying him? Why do you not hate a god who is an enemy to all the gods who gave away to humankind your privilege? The ties of birth and comradeship are strangely strong. True, yet how is it possible to disobey the Father’s word? Is not that something you dread more? It does no good to break your heart for him. Come now, you cannot help him: waste no time in worrying. Be quick & put the fetters on him before the Father sees you idling there! None but he could fairly find fault with my work Now drive the stakes through his wrists, There! Now you see a sight to pain your eyes Alas! I weep for your sufferings still shrinking? Weeping for the enemy of god? Take care; or you may need your pity for yourself Lest the fallen one take hold in the darker regions of your conscious Where no man will dare step foot upon it’s barren & desolate soil Beware son of the light if he should infest your life you would become the same as he Fallen, empty & an exile never again to return to your holy place of sanctuary [comments] => 4 [counter] => 257 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Immortal-Dragon21 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
