Winged Warrior Poet Rhyme

Beyond From Walls of Sleep-A Reversible

Beyond from Walls of Sleep

Deep dormant eyes forever weep
Keep hells behind upon walls of sleep
Dancing demons in rituals necromancing
Glancing of gates admits infernos entrancing
Damned words resonating of souls scammed
Programmed lips through evil’s command
Hellion hypnotic of minds dwelling
Rebellion of thoughts forever yelling
Contortions spread sanctioned abortions
Distortions spread abandoned portions.


...in reverse

Distortions spread abandoned portions
Contortions spread sanctioned abortions
Rebellion of thoughts forever yelling
Hellion hypnotic of minds dwelling
Programmed lips through evil’s command
Damned words resonating of souls scammed
Glancing of gates admits infernos entrancing
Dancing demons in rituals necromancing
Keep hells behind upon walls of sleep
Deep dormant eyes forever weep.


...I took this a step further where the poem is reversed and each line is backward...


Sleep of Walls from Beyond


Portions abandoned spread distortions
Abortions sanctioned spread contortions
Yelling forever thoughts of rebellion
Dwelling minds of hypnotic hellion
Command evils through lips programmed
Scammed souls of resonating words damned
Entrancing infernos admits gates of glancing
Necromancing rituals in demons dancing
Sleep of walls upon behind hells keep
Weep forever eyes dormant deep.



...perhaps no double meaning, but double fun...

This poem is dedicated to my friend Gregory R Barden (the Bard)...inspired by his poem 'A Quest, Maniacal'...Thank you Gregory for your insight...

Line Gauthier September 25, 2018 at 10:15 PM Belated congrats on your well deserved win, WW. Beautifully crafted poem. I may not be able to sleep tonight though! LOL

Charles Messina September 10, 2018 at 9:01 AM This is great WW. Well done congrats on your win. A beautiful dedication to Greg.

Jesse Rowe September 9, 2018 at 5:08 PM WW, the creativity on this was turned up to 11. It was definitely a bit of a mind bender to read and could have easily finished higher in the rankings. I personally (subjectively) had a hard time following the phrasings.

John Gondolf August 27, 2018 at 5:44 PM What an excellent job of crafting this poem, WW, very nicely done. Best of luck. John

Tania Kitchin August 24, 2018 at 11:13 AM Excellent poem, well done and a winner for sure!

Mystic Rose Rose August 24, 2018 at 5:27 AM I think you got the art of poetry down packed, I greatly admire your skills, Have a great day dear poet. t

Carolyn Devonshire August 23, 2018 at 9:42 AM Wow, the images of a tormented life beyond this one are stunning, WW. And how you managed to rewrite it three ways and still make sense is just amazing to me. Awesome poetry, Warrior! Best wishes in the contest. (It would be hard to top this!) Love, Carolyn

Besma Riabi Dziri August 22, 2018 at 9:59 AM A work of art composed by a poet who masters, feels and imagine words! Creative as you are Winged Warrior, shine and stay blessed. A joy to read. Thank you for sharing.

Andrea Dietrich August 21, 2018 at 6:39 PM ok, on the "step further" you did what I was talking about. Awesome!! Did the judge clarify it needed to be one way or the other. I applaud you. I did this just once and it's extremely hard to do

Andrea Dietrich August 21, 2018 at 6:37 PM Well Written stands for WW this time! I remember doing one in which every single word was also reversed, not just the lines. If it is only the lines we need worry about and not individual words, I think I might give this a go!!

Paul Callus August 21, 2018 at 2:21 PM Excellent WW! There is much more than meets the eye here. Double reversible, initial & ending rhyme, a topic to build on, etc. must have been time consuming, yet satisfying. Regards // paul

Roy Pett August 21, 2018 at 9:13 AM Absolutely brilliant ^WW^ I have only read two entered for this contest both are amazing, definitely out of my league, good luck in contest my friend. :))

Richard Lamoureux August 21, 2018 at 8:24 AM Wowzer, great video as well!

Vijay Pandit August 21, 2018 at 7:02 AM Amazing talent you are WW..this is a must win poem.

Joseph May August 21, 2018 at 5:38 AM This is very hard to do WW, but then you reversed each line too..Well done

Jan Allison August 21, 2018 at 3:20 AM WOW this is so clever ^WW^ I won't even bother looking at the contest this is superb and I can't even think where I'd start!!:-) hugs jan xx

Caren Krutsinger August 21, 2018 at 2:37 AM What an amazingly clever thing to do - to write a poem forwards and backwards and keep such integrity and purpose. I do believe you have created a new magnificent poem type, Winged Warrior. I am speechless. Reminds me of Coleridge's work; quite romantic also.

Eve Roper August 20, 2018 at 10:22 PM I am very impressed an excellent write, ^WW^, luck in the contest.

Sand Blown August 20, 2018 at 9:30 PM excellent morphing of words to describe a basic geometry, of mind-reality, that goes for all intents and purposes unseen
