Black Metal Poems - Poems about Black Metal

School Borders

...Walking up uneven sidewalks—
up cracked little hills of pavement,
past dingy apartments
gliding through trailer parks—
rough rails and low fences
skidding my fingertips—
reaching the dampened s...

Ode To My Bed

...
My bed is a vintage and very old 
I adore the swirled black metal
nice to behold
so delicate each created petal
I inherited it from grandma long ago
and can never let it go

The mattress...

The Fall and Rise

...The chlorophyll is starved,   
green goes to brown and red.
The dead are promptly shed.

See beech tree - skeletal,
stark and elemental,
looking like black metal.

But in its outer skin
some...

New Mirror

...New Mirror
The heavy metal guy looked perfect
With his long black girl like hair 
With his round black John Lennon shades
With his black SpecFor combat trousers 
With his black Doc Martin boots
...

Once We Had It All

...Once we had it all, I had a nice raven-haired girl, took her three kids 
on all happy families. Guess I did love you, were we really soulmates?
Yet you were never a goth, never understood that side...

Senobus

...The blackest night wrapped around the lake of Votna - snow fell fast what is up and what is down? A fist held tightly not allowing a single sound.
 Below the murky waters lay a creature unfound. 
O...

Traffick

...12:44 a.m.
Hollowed-out eyes
Rimmed with kohl
Set deep in sunken faces.
Tracks down faces and up arms
Visible under flickering halogen bulbs.
Dark cars creep by,
Distorted light reflections
g...

A Night Long Gone

...Knowledge is frightening, and it is far too
late to return to that stage of ignorance in my 
black metal framed bed. Right by the staircase
a long empty dark basement, my toes tingling 
from the ...

The Graveyard

...The graveyard of the dead
The dirt coils and warms the bodies in the ground
The tombstones stand above the ground
Marking where the dead lay

The grimm graveyard moans with despair
The black me...

Bastogne 1944

...Bastogne 1944
It was cold, so cold because they hadn’t given
 us warm clothes for the  winter, or to die in:
Germans and SS surrounded us and
 the aroma of their hot food and Heil Hitler!
warm f...

A Glance

...The engine roared as from it steam poured 
Rain drops hissed as the black metal they kissed

All filed out as the suited man began to shout

One man stood alone
Nervous, but never checking his phone
...

Have a Little Faith, Sweetheart

...The softest gossamer gown is never welcomed
Where vodka jumps from tiny glasses
Jilted by sweaty grasps.
I am a flower that blooms morality, 
A sober weed in a lush garden.

This penthouse part...

Sparrow's Fall

...Mother sparrow fell down my chimney.
Kept quiet on a quiet bedroom floor.
Baby sparrow, clung to screen door.

Sat on the black metal front light.
Then took flight, and mother died. 
No one cri...

Prince of Darkness

...one moonlit night i was spawned, 
a fallen angel with desecrated wings...
a changeling child, my eyes glistening menace...
and God shuddered when he saw me, 
raised his arms across the heavens, a...

One Heck of a Day!

...Heck of a Day 
I was sitting on a bench watching people go by.
Up and down the mall, in all shapes and size.

Across from me was a wanne be model..
Long legged, tiny waist, an "air headed" dawdl...
