Array ( [sid] => 180756 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Ground of Burning Coals [time] => 2015-03-13 13:18:08 [hometext] => I was in my bathroom, and noticed a weird portion of the painted wall. In which I saw an angel who inspired me to write this poem. [bodytext] =>
Churning fires of passion
Rage ever onward
Carrying the imaginative visual stimulations
Of infinite dreams, ideas, and beautiful visions

I see a pale-skinned hairless angel
With pavement wings
Soaring towards the sky
While worldly chains seek to drag her down

She has a showing of anguish
A bit of pain in which she endures
The chains press into her skin
But she intends to break free of that man-made bind

She's already gone a mile
And has many more to go
When will she reach the heavens?
No one will ever know

But her resolve does not falter
She attempts her bleak-seemed goal
I see this feat with my naked eyes
And plan to do the same myself

To leave the dirt of melting tar
And ground of burning coals [comments] => 5 [counter] => 182 [topic] => 19 [informant] => xHeathenx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

Ground of Burning Coals

I knew it.
Great poem and very tight and concise.
Can you spare that angel?

Applauds inspiration! Was it while sitting upon the porcelain throne? I saw a demon in the floor tile recently while there. Didn't result in a poem though. Thank you for an enjoyable read. Tim

Enjoyed reading this- I have often looked at patterns in the world around me and like you that gives me inspiration to write. I once wrote a short poem on a block of wood when I had no writing paper handy.

It's funny, our wall paper in our bathroom has designs that you can make out figures in as well. However, I never wrote a poem about them either. Maybe I should, your's was pretty cool! Thanks for sharing.
