Nevermore

Edgar Allen Poe = Werewolf Written for a group assigment

 

Nevermore

by jack

 

 

O’ foe, this night of grisly scene

Dancing fro o’er silhouettes

Hidden mist O’ wicked gleam

Of vision that this mind regrets

 

This skin of almost death defies

As bristles ‘trude in every pore

A’ tear along a tortured thigh

O’ scent of blood to be absorbed

 

Within my mouth the ache it barks

O’ tight my chest to soon explode

When hunger pierces through the dark

And sins of mothers bear their lode

 

I howl, for whence this night hath come

A’ feast doth lie in vision’d wait

Still pieces of the rising sun

I hope to see beyond the gate

 

This moon, my demon in the sky

For change doth come to whet the score

I pray the day that I may die

And live this evil, nevermore

Yes! Stellar poetry here sir! thank you...
Such a brilliant wording, this stanza I liked the most:

"This skin of almost death defies
As bristles ‘trude in every pore
A’ tear along a tortured thigh
O’ scent of blood to be absorbed"

It speaks so much volume, and is amazing.
You can smell almost death...

Great work sir.

O' wicked gleam
it ached to bark
I loved this piece
from finish to start

hope you get an A if it is graded*)
thank you fine sir for sharing

[Jack...]

As I lay here in the darkness
wounds of flesh so slowly bleeding
Within my final breath I whisper
Thank you Holly, so much for reading

[Holly Mason]

Woo, first off, your picture scared the bejaysus out of me. Your poetry is always so melodic, it's like a light in this darkest of pieces. Doesn't necessarily need to be werewolves does it, sound a bit like real life. Love that last verse, it's a killer!

[Jack...]

Thanks so much. Poe is one of my heroes. This one was fun to write. I appreciate you Frieda.

[Frieda P]
