Vestige

Inspired by the art of Luis Royo.

Paint me pictures of vestige
and oracles in dusty coffin chambers
Under moonlight, Venus beneath war clouds
wearing a crown of electroshock thorns,
Stained with broken tears of blood
the taste of salt
against the wooden sky
Airbrush me desire
among the hush of wings
pierced angels
kissing Liberty
Shoes ragged,
among hidden ruins
Babydolls
embraced by purgatory

If you read this, please at least leave a few brief words telling me your passing thoughts/feelings while you read or whatever. I just like to understand what people see and feel from what I write and there are so many different opinions among different people, that the more the better.

or write poetry that people will want to critique

oh I don't know. I was just considering alternatives. A lot of people don't have time to write up good feedback and don't want to post some overdone thing like "It's Great!" or "Good Job!".

Your poem just didn't convey much meaning to me personally. Part of the reason is because it's so short and seems like a fragment of something bigger. Do you have any longer works?
