A Warning to Heather
Curly locks of heaven's thoughts
Drift around her head
And make to shine my demon's eyes
To see her angels dead

her rats that bathe in shredded sin
Of rattlesnakes strayed skin
Bring to mind a simple smile
And cause a crooked grin

Easy as you see me
And your vicious mice
A disease of rolling feelings
We carry for you twice

And bite we will with jagged teeth
And cause the wounds be filled
(To sink within, above, beneath)
With the blood of angels killed

Depression
in an ocean of contemplation
something dimly lights the shore
an image of rock and wave
not enough to show the way
and still the final decision is made
as if from heaven it was born
and brought down by a seraphim
moving deftly through the maelstrom
its six wings beating against the storm
but that's no angel riding torment
to help a weary traveler
who has no obvious options to explore
no heavenly message delivered
that's a demon in a saintly form
the charade however clever
doesn't change the will of soaked and tired bones
that will soon be crashing against worn and beaten stones
and there shall be no reminder for they will be swallowed by the foam
and Neptune he is smiling it's a death that he adores

poppies are such depressing flowers
it's not in jest i must request
that of my words take heed
these bumble bees between the trees
teach me what i mean to be
it's no joke and you can quote
these words if you please
kitty cats from orange to black
are lions when they dream
it's not for rhyme i pen these lines
as you can plainly read
poppies whisper in the zephyr
but they do it with deceit

To Abby
Crush me easily
Lady day is fading
the stars have shone fearfully
feel the life that's ending

Tangle me appropriate
Girl sight misleading
the clouds are my associates
sounds without much feeling

Burn me insignificant
Woman light parading
your blinding breeze is decadent
see her heart cascading

Leave me oblivious
Female quiet temptation
loss that makes me curious
and drains my bloods sedation

You use rhyme effectively and they aren't ongoing. It takes talent to do that. I enjoyed reading these highly.

Drift around her head" really stands out to me.

[Only Me]

usually if i have responded to a poem it means that I have posted it and if it is posted then I have responded... but for some reason I did not respond to this one... and it has already been posted to the index... anyways Great work! Heather seems like a very beautiful woman. I can see the imagery in each of these.
