Phoenix Twilight

By Simonic

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Standing above this little hole, enticing me to Look on down and in, as Ebony walls assail A poor and helpless, fire’s twilight Twinkling amid a cold and dark Sea of restive tranquility Trying to sway and restore The flowing indulgences, of this little hole Twilight pulsing, moments Pass by below me Staring on down and in Deep into this rotting hole Rotting darkness conquering, over This pitiful hole, blinking Out this twilight, coming Torrent of darkness filling this little rotten, hole Standing above this little hole, enticing me to Look on down and in, as A prick of fire begins to, twinkle Amid this flagrant void Twilight pulsing, moments Pass by below me Fire alights within these eyes Staring on down and deep into this hole Fire of this Phoenix birth Spreading wings and soaring up, reaching up and among the cool night’s, air Burning away fiery darkness Standing above this little hole, siren eye’s Enticing me to, dive into it’s depths, to Swim amid it’s warm and, Welcoming ecstasies Grasping onto this Phoenix, siren eyes Tempting me I fall into this hole, letting Numbing fires lick at me Melt away, the flames As weeping darkness, overwhelms Absolving this fighting Phoenix down into, The Sea where siren’s lie Standing below this little hole, crucifying me, as I Look on up and out, as Ebony walls assail Leaving me Poor and helplessAnd just so you all know, I don't do drugs ;P Written December 18th, 2001 © on Dec 18 2001 10:13 AM PST   0 • 1
