Silence the Foe by Gloriaea
Silence the Foe
Gloriaea
Horror Horror
Blood poured from my eyes
Every word you penned
Dug through my irises
But why foil the ink
Stuff it back in the pen
Hold one end to their jugular
Until they eat their stained paper
Why not
Pull out a fresh sheet
And let your heart bleed
Color every page
With the kaleidoscope of you
Until the lights shines
Various frequencies amplified
Blinding our skulls
Until they've expanded
Mute the poet
Cut off his chords
Or find your voice
And illuminate the stage

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only
Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
