(#) Evanescent Poem by Alice Cuenca

(#) Evanescent

Rating: 5.0


A remaining leaf
resisting to fall.
Its vein has the purest
blood. Unruffled
by the freezing weather.

Mark of his scars:
meek as a lamb
cowers like a chicken;
ingurgitates, hungry
as a lion.

She thought,
sequel of past abused,
with her love he'd change.
But the gentlest
leaf is mutable in
a slightest shift.

Sublime poetry
from a distance,
is an unfeasible elixir.
Now, she dreams
of a bitter winter
to kill both their
love and affliction.

this is an engrossing piece for me... i even tried dissecting it. :) you have a very strong first stanza. if this poem is itself a leaf, that part is the petiole. it brings in the purest blood... for strength... some movement in the middle, while at the opposite end is aptly the last stanza, a stronger utterance of desperation... but even that is easily invalidated by the first. excellent.
