"avenges" poems
Darkness avenges light and swallows it up. A burning sun dies, melting in a horizon where orange flames mold with stars. Shadows awaken and roam a world. A black cloud is studded with blazing stalks; swaying and jumping throughout the dark. An exquisite pearl rules a sky. Slowly and on toes... Secrets are born, masks of empty smiles and eyes fall tearing flesh and bones; and what we thought as mythical creatures are shed, awakening the truest nature of souls.

Stripping Souls
His skin weaved in the golden sand, Shone under the sun of his motherland. Hair a tangled meshwork of thread, Reminiscent of the nets his father spread. He had no toys but crystals and shells, that he collected onshore in lonely spells. His food, the raw salty fish, Swiftly with skill that he gut and dished. He goes and lays down in wet sand, the spirit of which he loves to no end. He sings to the mermaids and in mud he rolls, and the sea laughs with him in breaking shoals. He is made of blood but ocean too, he knows no music but woosh woosh woosh. He wishes to marry a girl of the sea, who'll dwell with him in his fantasy. He turns his head and closes his ears, while people run away from the ocean in fear. Destruction and death loom ahead, The blue ocean rises violently filling the town with dread. Like a heavenly curse it fells on the town, crushes and sweeps like the tragedy bound. With his holy hand it avenges it's kin, and his water that was treated as nothing but bin. It tears every home away from it's root, just like how the humans did its fish loot. And squeezes the life out of the fishermen, that feast on the dead of his homeland. It starves and suffocates many men, who made him breathless with oil spills time and again. Like a storm it rages and plunders. In minutes, wrecks havoc on the land and rips it asunder. It gradually descends back to it's nest, Satisfied with the curse it did impress. The next day a body lay on the shore. Like a coffin did it mud wore. As people looked on it, they could not help but chant; ***The Child of the Ocean lies strangled in its waters, We feed things love and they destroy us and slaughter.***

Sarcastic smirks at the corner of your left cheek, exaggerating the importance of each day and week, Making me nod even when I don't agree, Just to tell yourself...."I told him what to seek!" The veins of my wrist pop out ever moment, My ears get a spoon full of torment! But fortunately I've got two of them so two ends, Open at the terminals to shove everything out! Pretentious eyes...I've got... but something lies behind them, This massive walnut of conspiracies is what gives instructions all the time then, You see what I show you and inside I'm a blank face, Who wins without even putting a step in this never ending rogue race! Thousands of efforts you can make and yet you'll only see what I want, I am the generous soul of the priest who avenges the night till haunt! Stop me if you can...cuz you know you cannot, but still show me what you've got which will at last die and rot, So stop me if you can cuz I will be the same which never have I been, Something that never have you seen so come forward and lean, To witness red coming from green. Stop me if you can!

Must our virtues be buried as well He wanted to sleep further up the trail It would be safer, where values can be praised without pain But where violent paths cross, a woman would give herself up Even to a man she could never love, so she can live Is it the same for a nation Do we owe it to someone to live by absolutes Even though what is written changes And what is not written is immutable If we save a man, are we responsible for him? If we **** a man, will we forget him? A people of differences must believe in something to survive If we are hunted like animals, must we become animals? Must we become thieves and murderers? And what becomes of our memory What kind of people were we What would they say of us after we are gone That we lived burying our morals Or that we died giving them to a man that lives As we walk upon the ground that cares not for us And as we see the seasons change without need of us It is up to us to cultivate the praises of love and honor Will the water be as clear as tears that remember sadness Will the water be as ***** as anger that avenges without remorse As stones gather for the feast of judgment before sin Then we will know what they will say about us It will be written that we softened the stones, building a new path The same as the path carved into our own hearts By the words we have read by those who passed before us Knowing that we will not burn books in favor of existence Instead we will add a new chapter that demands to be heard And our virtues will live instead of dying along with our past

We Are Not At War With Virtue
Must our virtues be buried as well He wanted to sleep further up the trail It would be safer, where values can be praised without pain But where violent paths cross, a woman would give herself up Even to a man she could never love, so she can live Is it the same for a nation Do we owe it to someone to live by absolutes Even though what is written changes And what is not written is immutable If we save a man, are we responsible for him? If we **** a man, will we forget him? A people of differences must believe in something to survive If we are hunted like animals, must we become animals? Must we become thieves and murderers? And what becomes of our memory What kind of people were we What would they say of us after we are gone That we lived burying our morals Or that we died giving them to a man that lives As we walk upon the ground that cares not for us And as we see the seasons change without need of us It is up to us to cultivate the praises of love and honor Will the water be as clear as tears that remember sadness Will the water be as ***** as anger that avenges without remorse As stones gather for the feast of judgment before sin Then we will know what they will say about us It will be written that we softened the stones, building a new path The same as the path carved into our own hearts By the words we have read by those who passed before us Knowing that we will not burn books in favor of existence Instead we will add a new chapter that demands to be heard And our virtues will live instead of dying along with our past

I cheated a lot but i didnt pass I got ditched by my own life "whiplash" I dont like what i do for my bread and butter But i i m a sloth to try for caviare Maybe you you wont c me again because you're too good Maybe i should c you because i want to and i would My mind strangles my heart and i choke I did cry and tears did roll as i woke The heart avenges the mind and over pumps The mind could not take u thus forms lumps The lumps has u and it never dissolves I believe i have issues that will never resolve I put doses of alcohol and smoke to avoid the brain to burst But i didnt find another potion to put an end to the lust

Heart fights brain
The profits of words In the night that becomes us, We the nocturnal poets, Divinities of the good nights When benevolence soars As the pen avenges the light; Constellation of the return, Coming to rip the hope from regret And all dissolves into a pen, Inklings that become the umbilical Cord between now and then, Present and tomorrow Are written for the sake of hope, Because yesterday is usually A sad poem. Quarter hour gone, I reinvent myself Born from the volcanic melancholy, The fire that burns In the moments we want Those moment's time, Here and now, Words are the quarter hour's Fulfillment at the poets Expense.

The Quarter Hour Midnight Poets
I'm sending the idiot Who killed Cecil the lion Back to the park With not gun or bow A terrible man And he deserves to pay You know? And Jericho, Cecil's cousin Will pounce on him Use his claws To tear him to shreds And with a final bite Jericho will Gnaw off the hunter's head I think people Should only hunt for survival

Jericho Avenges Cecil The Lion
Pessoa sat on a bench ready for the rain's stench hands in his pocket an empty, empty wallet time is shredding senses the mysterious coat avenges last from a group of friends wounded and the fog doesn't mend Pessoa sat on a bench taking the rain's stench his jaw to the clench busy streets cobble French black hat with a tight ridge where all curious minds hid door slams, droplets dance it's a trance Pessoa sat on a bench defend yourself, defend passersby still know, no tend a pity look, a petty spell want to buy? would he sell? smiles wasted wry tickled waists to the clutched hand-holding lie not to him, he's to die shadow pointless, out of time Pessoa sits, demeanor stands umbrella steady by left hand a soaked problem with no name down the cliff behind him, letters rain                                                                                            ------ravenfeels
