Against The Moon
Copyright 2001
Written by James Edward Shields


Raven so gothic
So perfect in form
Black hair feathers flesh
That yearns on more
To devour another
In lust or in love
Scythe the hunger
That reaches beyond

Anika who’s wings be free
Against all shores in misery
Lady of desire
Pour the passion like snakes
Injecting venom for pain
That spawns pleasure adore
Affection in eyes
Against the moon
The raven arise

We are born into this world alone, and we will die alone.  It is what we do between those times that matters.  This is where we leave our mark.

This was dark imagery in writing at its best!  You did a great job on this one!  Keep up the good work.  This is definitely one for the library!

"If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh"

Well that made my morning.

We are born into this world alone, and we will die alone.  It is what we do between those times that matters.  This is where we leave our mark.

Thank you for those most generous words.

Good cannot exist without evil.  Darkness I embrace.
