Impression

Impression

A Poem by Deandra Dawn

There she stood,
showering in the embers of deceit,
tinted orange
with violent reds.
A magnificent display
of benevolent
transgression. 
The decaying tidings of good fortune that
disappear into the wind of logic.
Abstaining from the vulgar
impression of the
dregs of which her
sharpened tongue
utters.
The damning convenience of
a formidable opponent,
extinguishing the
romantic notion of
destructive fabrications
of your 
twisted
mind

First line set and summed the tone for me. "She' that seems destined to be of "Impression", almost in the clay of another one's game. "There she stood showering in the embers of deceit" A woman that knows the benefits of cleansing by fire. Interesting, This pleasant presenting of duality...."Decaying tidings".."damning convenience". She does not sound the recipient here in the good way..but still the dichotomy suggests there is yet a want/desire as an impression is not a ful
revealing but rather a perception wanting. Enjoyed it
..Thanks!

showering in the embers of deceit, (ember suggest fire, but deceit implies dark, while shower implies clean, perhaps look for a better word than showers, because you implying cleanness to deceit, contrast a bit.)

If I'm reading this correct, good fortunes are a farce, a mask to cover the darkness, it takes the logical mind to perceive the deceit . . . resisting against logic, it what bathes her in fire.

Showering is actually exactly what I was going for. Thank you though.
