The Daze of Malice

Your barque blocks the orb which steers my muse; change course, you are an intrusion. Captain Wahn. Intimidation brands you a martyr, mere threats have no place herein. Alter your own path. Skipper Twain. Seems a knot has you both anchored; choking, challenging your journey. Old grudges you have harbored will send you back to your docks on a gurney. words from Urania. Fate obstructs the view when ships align with the moon. Urania smiles. Hidden underwater shelf will cut short the daze of malice.

Very well done, Reason. I see you placed and I hope you got a good placement with this deep meaning poem. I thought Broken Wings' challenge was inspiring to many of her contestants in this contest. By the way, I have at least four or five oak tree poems. And other tree poems as well. How about you?

Thanks, Constance, I don't do dark often and this is metaphor dark. I'm glad for the placement in your All About Four contest.

An intense metaphorical write. Sounds much like my daughters when they are fighting (or playing a video game). Great visuals.

Yes, I have two sons and two grandsons which bicker and bite even as I write. Thanks for the comment.

Enemies are bound to find each other eventually. These two did. Thanks for your interaction here, appreciate your remarks.
