Description
Thousand grey-ones cry,They cry in the dark below,
They fill the Stained-one with pain,
And he flows and crushes on.
His forget blazed the world,
It razed the capitols of acanthus,
It killed the white children of the wind,
And brought back to life the blind.
Under the crimson skies he poisons,
With his body, that forever,
In Hell should have boiled,
Yet now is the water that glints in our eyes.
He changed the image of the world,
And now Hell is up, and the earth is down,
And no one wakes up from his slumber,
Yet Acheron floods and flows on.
The dead became alive,
And the living climbed down,
And all the evil of the gruesome water,
Up like god-sent shine.
Acheron now stired the last souls,
He calmed down, and went on with the flow,
Yesterday all this came to pass,
And today for me itβs all the same.
I sat down to have a dry gulp,
And in the goblet the green waters,
I drained it without a look,
And nothing happened yet.

Ooh, I really like this one.
Acheron, the river of woe, that is a bi-meaning of Hades. ^^
Gad, I love how you interweave such deep, blistering, thought-provoking metaphor in your work.
Why can't I meet someone like you here in the states? Because I think I'm in love.
A guy that writes and thinks like you, and I'm sold.
His forget blazed the world,
It razed the capitols of acanthus,
It killed the white children of the wind,
And brought back to life the blind.
Burned man, destroyed the apex of death, erased the ghostly existence, and made men whole and helped them understand again.
That's how I took this stanza. It's my favorite. ^^
Gosh. I love you.

hahahah well it is all in the teacher... the bigger part of all I use in my poetry is just because of long yeared researches, I love reading, I swallow the books whole... and yes, I had a very good literature teacher, which is really rare in the world, except maybe on the university... she was holding presentations to us in high school that bordered some of the most complex studies on the academy... she was an art and literature fanatic, and many didn't even understand her what was she talking about sometimes, but I thank her with all my heart for the love for literature that she implanted in me.
Although most of what I know I had read or heard somewhere before my classes, she was of great help and guidance... shel likes me very much, and now I miss her when I'm in college.

How lucky you were to have a teacher like that, a teacher so dedicated and passionate!
I had maybe...2 teachers like that in my entire schooling.
