Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Couplet

Notes About The Poem

- When the Demons Blossom -

My thoughts whirring
When life freezes the blood

Actions that burn in hell
A fire that burns forever

Terror -  their empire of hate
Fearless, they control our destiny

Terrible destruction done by weak and miserable people
They mark their strength as animals, with deposition of urine

"Hell on Earth" these demons will inflict upon mankind
Of human destruction and evil, woe and shame

How likely we can find "The Earth's Paradise"
I look far around, but not close

We want to live in butterfly harmony
From wing to wing - of their joy and dance

Dean Wood May 30, 2017 at 9:04 AM A great choice for POTD Anne-Lise. Congratulations. This is a powerful piece. It invokes a sense of the desperate and plenty of "ticked-off" in me. - Dean Anne-Lise Andresen May 30, 2017 at 2:07 PM - Glad you liked it, Dean :) - Many thanks for your congratulations and your friendly support :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Robert Hayes May 30, 2017 at 8:35 AM The relinquishing metaphor serves to place the narrator squarely in a vulnerable position. In this piece it works and continues to work throughout. Your phrases follow the sentiment of utter helplessness, the colour of which is very much sensed by the butterfly imagery at the close. Very powerful write. Anne-Lise Andresen May 30, 2017 at 2:05 PM - Many thanks for your congratulations and your friendly support ... a great comment, Robert - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
