Envy a Butterfly

Contributed by Vice1 on Saturday, 16th October 2004 @ 02:15:46 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

The rotor made death astound,
As its fiery blades adorned,
Red ribbons clung the rusty cage,
Swinging, exciting, full in rage.

Dust 'n turmoil masked its sides,
Aroused a distant flicker in its might
Like a tiger on tricker hides
O' blind those winged angel eyes.

The rotor now aloud smiled,
The winged beast hath arrived,
Curse those death ribbons, its dance
O' blind those winged angel eyes.

How well would the joy know?
The poor beast winged flying low.
The rotor sharp revolved it's weapons high
To hear the scream of the butterfly.

Oh! I like this a lot. It may well be a state-of-mind sort of thing... in an odd coincidence, I've just post a butterfly poem that... well... wasn't the classic 'aren't butterflies lovely' sort of thing.

I really like what you've done here. A delicate butterfly vs. fan... doesn't really stand a chance does it? (Sometimes life is just like that.) Poor, poor butterflies are having quite a bad day, I'd think...

Thank you for making it so I'm not the only one abusing butterflies today!
