I love the imagery in this poem and have always enjoyed stories that have to do with battles we can’t see. Loved writing this one with JMC813. Please visit his site and see all his amazing talent has to offer! I am using the picture he used because it is perfect for this piece. I tried to find the GYPSY artist but had no luck, if I find them I may have to purchase a piece of art because I think it is awesome.
Picture by Gypsy and Poem Written by JMC813 and HastyWords
Stormy clouds enveloped them
Hiding their meeting in the sky
Where dark angels congregated
With majestic ash covered wings
This gathering so dangerously forbidden
For the dark should never romance the light
But Heavenly allegiance holds no power here
As wings of white radiance tangle with those of fiery brilliance
Their passion rolling inside the thunder
Producing sparks that light up the sky
Their hungry appetite a clapping crescendo
Frightening earthly inhabitants with their rendezvous
The Demonic and the Divine twist eagerly in torrid revelry
Pushing boundaries of unspeakable eroticism and treacherous taboos
This heightening fervor becoming a furiously euphoric frenzy
The pure and possessed alike hunger for ecstasy and salacious satiation
Will love overcome their bond and paint beautiful rainbows in the sky
Or will the deviance of dark wreck destruction outside our front doors
The romance of light battling the lust of dark within our atmosphere
Strong impassioned fervor between two forces longing to be one again
Nothing righteous could ever come from this unearthly carnal carnival
Writhing deities cast shadows of illicit acts performed by both angels and demons
Mankind is brought to its knees by lascivious desires sent down from a hole in the sky
The overpowering strength of reckless abandon spills forth casting a spell on all humanity
Oh wow! The picture is fantastic, I got lost in it for a moment before reading the poem, and then the poem blew my mind with its imagery. Beautifully described, I love the use of words, ‘Salacious Salvation’, ‘Carnal Carnival’ and ‘Their hungry appetite a clapping crescendo’. You both are amazing! 🙂
