Best Poems Written by Lisa Anderson

Purgatory

Thine existence confirms/ The existence of
Purgatory
A vast contradiction to
Reality and its’ paradoxes
Blasphemous spirits compel me
Thine own spirit is thus devoured
Madness damning thineself with hunger
Webbing thine subconscious with
Crimson thoughts
Into an already shattered existence

Thine own thorned kiss confirms
Oblivious to humankind/ A nature becoming 
Beastial
Paradoxes disembowel reality
Slaughtering the virginal lamb
And leaving thine demon satiated
And ne’er to fade
Time hath no hold/ Cast no remorseful shadow
O’er the skeletal moon
Thy must only wait

For Death to raise its’ withered hand
Striking thineself mercilessly/ Until it
Ends thine reign
And thy cease to exist
But until the ageless sun sinks away
Into the aqua infinite abyss
Thine inner beast shall rise
And with it so shall fear
Sweeping forth to consume the dreams
Of the sleepers
