The blackness drips from your tainted lips
Deluging in darkness the red moon in eclipse
A venomous Venus veins your fingertips
+++
Grey clouds mourn as your wrath does scorn
The veils of love are tempestuously torn
Relishing in obscurity and anguish you adorn
+++
Mounted by illusion exiled in cerebellar confusion
Dreams captured within sacrificial seclusion 
As the shadows shackle and tuck you in exclusion
+++ 
Dormant eyes weep upon a caliginous calm sweep
For in are sedulous sorrows we shall reap
The nebulous nectars of your deep
+++
Love a double-edged sword will cut the cord
For you wait for your retroactive reward
Thus consumed by the atramentous horde.

Joanna Daniel November 8, 2018 at 5:24 AM A deep deep and dark poem, John:)

Mystic Rose Rose November 8, 2018 at 4:23 AM Love is definitely a double edged sword. Ma you feel only the soft round edge of its buttery smooth feel and never the killing side of love. Have a great day dear poet.

Vijay Pandit November 7, 2018 at 5:11 PM In the usual tradition of your amazing poems..you are an artist..and you deserve a TOP win.

Brandy Nicole November 7, 2018 at 3:00 PM This is filled with depth and darkness. "Don't touch me please, I cannot stand the way you tease" You have created another Masterpiece Winged Warrior. Watch out!! Because, those lips of venom will deceive, oh yes- you better believe, they will. Tainted Love with Black Powder Mist. ~ Brandy

Line Gauthier November 7, 2018 at 2:51 PM Wow. As impressive as always, WW - but of course, that's your signature standard.

Demetrios Trifiatis November 7, 2018 at 11:53 AM Thunderous verses, powerful imagery, stunning language my friend, WW! You truly a Winged Warrior! Good luck my friend!

Chris Green November 7, 2018 at 11:18 AM Hey there, thanks for the comment. It was your poem that inspired mine. I came in here and read this and then saw the contest you wrote it for and jumped to the contest page to see what it was about, then dove into that poem and never got back here to comment on your brilliant piece of writing. I feel like a bad friend now. But...yours was awesome and your imagery, what you can do with letters and symbols just blows me away. Bravo my friend, I think this one will reach the top way before mine.

Charles Messina November 7, 2018 at 10:34 AM ...and be us blessed, someone used a double-edged sword to cut your cord, WW...if not we may not have been reading your wonderful poetry, best wishes for a win...Love & Swords...Charlie
