Angela Crabtree Poet Rhyme

Dark Spirit

Where did you come from
what exactly are you
Evil lurks in your lum
your works are not queue

you prey on the weak
so you can feel strong
these words I do speak
until transformation comes along

you feed into famine
and sickness you allow
your arm is as a talon
you rip the flesh you vow

some may not understand this
I hope that soon will dissipate
this longing for a world of bliss
I cry out to annotate

*This poem came to mind after reading Revelations

Paul Callus December 31, 2020 at 10:53 AM Even those who are not savvy with the bible, your words can make sense, because 'darkness' effects everyone, and so does the yearning for a better tomorrow. ~ Best regards // paul Angela Crabtree January 3, 2021 at 4:50 PM Thank you, Paul :)

Jennifer Proxenos December 28, 2020 at 12:09 PM Revelations reveals a lot of what is happening in our time and space, but the Book of Revelations is a little scary to those that read it for the first time. My Honors thesis at Varsity was the Spirituality of the New Testament but that was several moons ago! I love your poem, and how you depict what you read. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer. Angela Crabtree December 30, 2020 at 8:12 AM Thank you, Jennifer :)

Victor Buhagiar December 27, 2020 at 10:13 PM I have began reading the book several times and even with explanations, but rarely managed more than a few chapters, plus extracts from daily bible reading. A dark poem but positive ending. ~~ Angela Crabtree December 30, 2020 at 8:11 AM Thank you, Victor :)
