Literary Element

A Poem by eglantine

Character fault is important

and it begins with the bite of an apple--

 

not fallen from the tree

but from the tart night.

 

Crack open the moon and taste the core--

 

                         benign and strained,

                         dead worm on a tongue.

funny, how if only the reader would
expose/accept the imperfection in the genius
they could expose/accept the genius in themselves

there is a fusion in the inner power and the technique
they work synergistically

there are different ways to take this piece

you bring to light in my mind, at least
the evolution of writing
and place it in the context of maybe
the cycle of birth and rebirth
and juxtapose it with well chosen nature imagery

one may find, that nature is perhaps
reflecting the death in yourself
that needs to find spirit form
outside the context of time and box
in order to find heaven/rebirth

well done

Most times, an objective scrutiny will reveal holes in the superficial in the light of day.
