    For Once Upon a Time...

    On silver wings, against the azure tinted dusk
    Shone fierce a light
    From shadowy souls of the midnight aria
    To the destitute shores the forest green, now darkened at the glimpse
    of the intrinsic inclinations of the soul of man
    East of Eden, and south of heaven, from the disparaging depths of
    Sexual deviation, and sadistic deprivation
    A beast stalks the floors of concrete jungle, lying in wait for one who comes to bear
    On lead hope to the grave, the disenchanted deviant; the man of sexual prowess and miasma of the lust that swirls about him angrily
    A faint moment, deciding... needing....

    And then she comes,
    Is she you? the one who I have now, or the one I search
    Seconds stop... minutes ceasing to exist, Time halts as if I were holding it in my vampyric addiction.
    A turn.. a look...

    Then pounce...

    very animalistic and deep. the darkness was apparent but beautiful. this poem grabbed me and carried me through a wilderness of bewildement. great job

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
