The Face In The Flames

Match to the wood
Slowly, it burns
Conjure the demon
No one else knows.
Ascends to the living earth
Upwards it stretches
Reaching and caressing the sky,
Dancing the eternal dance
Turning, sways to the unheard rhythm
Of life and death combined
Entwined without a care.
Ever consuming,
Exhaling nauseous fumes
Silver spirals,
Twists through the air
Take away the mask
Reveals its face...
Red slits burning
Golden orbs glowing
Bronze skin shimmering
Auburn hair flashing
Nostrils flaring
Lips part
The voice roars
Rises, and falls
With the dying destruction
Gives a sinister smile,
Fades away,
Ever watching the world -
The Face in the Flames

:excited: YES! Finally! I have another poem out!

Yes, I was kicking myself over and over again for not bringing out another Deviation - but then this beauty flew into my head.
I've always enjoyed - therefore preferred - to describe aspects of things which people might not have considered before. To put it simply, I love personification. :)

I'm currently not too sure which category I ought to put this poem in, however - your opinions would be appreciated. :) For now, it's staying in General Poetry, even though I hate putting anything in 'General'... for some reason.
Also, I somehow think that the poem and how it turned out were influenced slightly by a song I was listening to just before I started typing this up - "Skin On Skin" by Queens Of The Stone Age

Anyway... Enjoy the poem! It's not as long as Eternal Dungeon, so I hope that people will be more... motivated... to read it. :) And yes, I am STILL dead chuffed that I have finally brought another poem into the public... Might just treat myself to another Mingle.... :D

Hmm, interesting, I'm not going to try and analyse it, I might help the head-ache become more promenent... (probably spelt that wrong).

Anyway, it sounds nice to the ear... I wasn't reading it out-loud btw.
+fave... and I'll probably comment later, once this head-ache has settled.
