Battle of Words - Alexa Brus

Battle Of Words ((collaboration)) by~ ALEXA BRUS A thousand random thoughts race through my head at a loss to find the clarity to write what they actually said clashing as sworn enemies in the dead of night drawing their swords, the battle begins to find some insight blackened ink of unlegible words runs down the pages as the lion and the lamb pace back and forth within their cages thoughts march forward, thinking they've got it figured out each one slashed away by the ambiguous army of doubt by~ Poet Destroyer Drifting until the veil impales words into my mind Erupting in brilliance spectrum's that expand very unkind A jagged stars, fell to emerge in pictures of peace and tranquility Like a serenade of marching dimes, alluring army twisted personality And this the mischief in which words run and burn "we are born!" ~Never into the perfect Eden, once the enemy blew its horn The withered hands of time cradled by evergreen harmony That shun majestic Aurora battles, rising in jaded disharmony a collaboration with * ALEXA BRUS my collaboration contest

Cool high seas poetry, Alex and PD! Swords unsheathed and pens sharpened. This is as cool a battle as heretofore seen in the Kitchen swab halls of Poetry Soup. Love and smiles always.

Just delving into your back pocket again my Sweet Dark Friend, I see you also struggle with the words in this twisted world. How are you keeping? Take care, Richard

A very well done piece/collaboration as far as the insights of the connection/ disconnection of thoughts and words and frailty of emotions in the human experience. well done Alexa and PD

Sounds like you are talking about the "Garden of Eden" throughout the poem. I like the last line the best. Is Aurora one of the greek or Roman Gods? Or the sun? Love Matthew Anish
