I am the one you warned me of sounds like the devil telling the truth of himself. I like it. I feel a story rising from this quote.
Nicely done.
Oooo, iron fist in velvet glove, that was brilliant! Loved your Villanelle!
Iron fist in a velvet gloveโฆ.this says so much. That line alone dictates the feel of this wonderful piece. Thank you for your entry
This is a gorgeously dark poem.
Ignore the spammer Brago Lass they have been reported
Evocative imagery there! Iron fist in a velvet glove! Love this.
This is most definitely a very dark poem, and it does though make you think about a few things.
