Lead Me Into the Twilight

Lead me into the twilight, my golden stallion
Who wrestles with the soldiers of the metallic rain.
Listen to my song that pleads for you to come into my lyre
And dress your tail with satin or silk.
I am forever enchanted by your melodic flesh
That sings to my spirit with great power of the tongue.
For I shall dance into the purple sea when you
Come to call on me for a walk into the everglades
That burn with volcanic minds to enrapture me
With their philosophic creeds of strife.
I shall not be forced to exchange the holy for the unholy,
But instead, I shall vanquish all driven visions
That march inside the patterns of my mind.
So if you wish for me to be a part of your unlawful deeds,
Then you will have to convince higher mountains
Than me to allow your credence to embrace my lulling melodies.
For it will do you no good to put forth such a dead effort,
Because you will lose every time.

really enjoyed the read

[TL Boehm]

Listen to my song that pleads for you to come into my lyre
And dress your tail with satin or silk.
Well done, this is very much a "lyric" poem, no pun intended

[Randolf Ramos]

Well expressed! to drive away deeds unholy is a difficult task but you have mastered it. Before it could shake your nerve it will go through a hard time and be swollen by itself and burst but you will remain strong in spirit and strong in mind!

Keep it up! keep on writing!
I got to learn a lot from you

[Adelia Alighieri]

'Come to call on me for a walk into the everglades
That burn with volcanic minds to enrapture me'
Beautifully put. Great work.

[J.S. Pua]

nice..
my favorite part:

"So if you wish for me to be a part of your unlawful deeds,
Then you will have to convince higher mountains
Than me to allow your credence to embrace my lulling melodies."

good work..

[Fabian G. Franklin]

"my lulling melodies" Yes! That is just what they are! Such soothing, dreamily concocted potions of words and magic mixed in the mysterious fog just outside of waking experience.
