Silver stream

Silver stream

A Poem by vindictivesunshine

Legacy of silver wounds haunt him in stitch time, torn at the seams.
Fate, his idol, left some phlegm for him to wash off; and all before the sun punched in.
It was the light's blindspot.
Devious arts of morning go unnoticed.
Man-skin hung on the meat hooks, slowly peeled so as not to leak nocturnal secrets,
carefully reunite with their contemptable hosts.
No-one knows their genisis or duty, but they see fit to walk among us.
He, though, is not one of them.
A snake but not a serpent.
His blood lust to continue as a lone wolf.
Iced lattice closing in,
Illness a disillusion and death the next ambush.

Wow...this is really intense. The imagery was raw and gritty, but the depth of the piece was quite more than that.

--these lines are beautiful...I mean, not in the "pretty" sense of the world, but in how wonderfully they work with the piece.

I agree with Anima Inspired...this is really intense. I grabbed me from the first line and didn't let me go until the last word. Very VERY powerful piece of work. I am delighted by the friend request so I could discover your work for myself!
