Evil Spirits

Let’s exorcise
The demon
That gnaws away
Your dreams
Let’s fill your mind
With beauty visions
Until that demon screams

Let’s exorcise
The devil
That eats away
Your hope
Let’s fill your heart
With joyous love
Until that devil chokes

And when these vicious fiends
Scrabble blindly on the floor
We’ll catch them in a honey jar
And throw them out the door  



Lotharingia
"Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo

I love the concept of doing something, and then finishing it off like you did, very creative!!! Loved it!!

Spitfire, Deb, Xeonox, Magebeast,
THANKS  
Hardrock, I wish I could!  
Ian, you have to make sure there's still some honey in the jar. The demons don't like sweet things. We want them to get stuck in sweetness, don't we?
Alan,

What string in what bow? Can a bow have several strings?
Am I dim?
Have I missed something?

Uta...I really enjoyed this one. Very, very good!

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.

Great work, as always.

How wonderful if all "demons" could be dealt with in this way.  I really enjoyed this piece, especially the "solution" at the end.  Linda
