Short Foreshadowed Poems

Flock
Of crows
Flapping wings
Darkened blue skies
Their loud raucous cries
Bring news of death
Deep sorrow
Be gone
Flee

Where the heart and soul compress
Is a secret garden of helpless bliss
Foreshadowed by any distorted pain
Unrelinquished freedom yet never vain
And I shall await your baited breath 
Today tomorrow until my death
For you are I and I am you 
An interwoven love no one a clue...

inspiration
        awaits an
             interlude
to flash 
        and sparkle,
an opportunity
          for bravura
foreshadowed 
          in half-closed 
                   eyes
an otherworldly 
                moment..
a prosaic
                coda
now lives...

flaming rainbow aloft, 
starlight galaxy festoon 
once an iron sky, 

Tempest equinox, 
sparks shall on them descend, 
foreshadowed co lours reign force 

defy justify defy 

Coiled snake, rabid tongue, sermon revoked 

preach not your cruel co lours 
delivered unto me true co lours

Red and blue embers twisted hypocrite burns 
soul restored, recaptured spirit in purple

...this co lour my courage deserves......

Raven eyed the moon glowered
in an anthracite sky 
bleeding onto an India-ink stage
where Valkyrie’s pluck 
dead heroes to Valhalla. 

Wolf winds howl the ravished sight.
Rent storm with fang and claw.
Purge the all too monochrome plight
with the Bloody born.

Harken the twisted neck of owl
observer of raven eyed moon.
Mourn the passing of the faint of heart
for they've met their foreshadowed doom....

Like cattle before slaughter we wait

We sit there in fear

Not knowing our fate

I shed a tear




We all lay, trying to dream

Silence consumes the night

We awake from a scream 

We awake in freight




She screams of demise

She screams of the end

“Fire, Fire, Fire” she cries

We do not comprehend




She does twice more 

We silence her knowing of her state

Instead of listen we ignore

If only we knew this foreshadowed our fate...

Inclosed by a ferocious fortune for eternity
Naught with naught, can't do anything
Escaping means dying
Vicious prognosticated destiny
Inseparable with the prophecy
Trust is the only weapon
Against the foreshadowed storm
Body had been marked
Languidly lurks in the dark

Enticed with concealing the stark
Fallacy of the fate is desperately needed
Although the kismet has been stated
Take it and fight with it 'till the end
Enraging predetermined events will amend....
