Aerona's Bethlehem

Inaugural Star Of Bethlehem. Spun out in lush ebony to gleam with delirium.

For this she will play fancy with Lucifer, moist mouth the Martyr.

With arachnid eyes she is patient. But then too long on the crowned crest.

Be not confused with worship. This innocent of the Cosmos is a

Tempting tyrian. He is patient for the world of nothing.

Feathered Aerona has crisped and darked with your touch. But with this

She is immortal. So alive in your bittersweet tempter’s cocoon.

Soon she will lust for your master shroud. With this, her devils will dance.

And with charred wings, she will nestle at your neck.  She will whisper sharply.

“You who have darked this dove has made her a raven.”

Then animal cries by soured obsidian will sing to our mistress.

[Omar Fendri]

This poem demands rereading which I honestly did it twice.
I have been blown away by the magic which beats in each line of this poem... Artistically presented, Literally written, imaginatively painted...
"He is patient for the world of nothing.
Feathered Aerona has crisped and darked with your touch"
Such vivid structures haunted by mystery are in this piece of work and the last lines are the icing on the cake...I ADMIRE IT.

[Michael of Gilead]

interesting peice

[Ripple of Aqua]

Very depth defying. It tests just how much you really know.
"You who have darked this dove has made her a raven"
So very interesting and descriptive. Makes you wonder if there was a hidden story beyond the truth she speaks.

[Novel Reader]

Really dark with beauty and grace - it gives me chills!

“You who have darked this dove has made her a raven.”

I love this line, the darkness engulfing the purity and making it soiled and spoilt, beautiful imagery, you spun this tale as easily as she spun the coccoon, keep em' coming

[Tate Morgan]

[Plagued Monumentally]

Like nicotine said, I got shivers also. This was really dark and powerful, loved it!

[argentum lumen]

Ok this may be a dumb question but were you making a reference to magic the gathering or Agrona the battle deity? I liked the poem even though i couldn't completely understand it. Good description and overall well written.
