A Wedding
lurked in darkness til all be said
uttered love in words conveyed
One starless night as cold as death
vowed and wed thy soul encased
shrouded angel black and veiled
layeth be each night with thee
blood as wine bed of snakes
a matrimony was made.

Some sin that brought the death angel "shrouded black" to witness a starless night "as cold as death" -- Who, "uttered words of love" could it be, the matrimony of blood and snakes, veiled as such, or was it the one who "lurked in darkness" who became a bride or groom to death's own "encased soul"??? Awesome Literary Speech!

You've used ancient and modern poetic devices and have even invented some of your own. In this case, I don't really like the use of medieval English. I think the poem would be more effective in today's usage. Still, you succeed in making the reader feel the darkness and the horror of the marriage with death. (I wish you would lighten up a bit, though. Sorry about the opinion, but this time I couldn't help it)!

I hate to tell you this, yet that became actual the worst poem i've got ever examine. there became no direction in besides, and that i became fairly disgusted at your loss of satisfaction on your very own writing! i became going to objective to locate some style of direction on your writing, something that i might desire to stem off of and write merely a splash for you, yet i would be unable to locate merely approximately something!! i could say, i don't think of you have a gamble on being entered in case you employ this poem, the only way could be in the adventure that your instructor is on cocaine. I strongly welcome you with open hands to look on the questions i in my opinion have asked, by using fact I fairly have asked a pair of few of my poems. I additionally strongly reccomend you the two e mail/IM-ing me, so as that i will furnish help to write a contest winning poem. i'm hoping to take heed to from you! <3andrea

i think it means what all your other poems mean.... you see death and destruction, and you feel like you need to express yourself in such a way as to think you're the first to feel this way. suffering and dying is a part of human culture... and dying doesn't really mean death... a part of me dies each day, when i saw o.j. get off a double murder charge... when we saw the twin towers fall....when ghengis khan killed ungodly amounts of people... the spanish inquisition... how many poems were written about that? deal with what we have here and now. look around you and find the great when things aren't so great.

Or the unity of a soul with darkness.

an anticipation of pains brought by love?
