The Eyes of Fire

The Eyes of Fire
“Red like blood… Red like fire…”

Look into my eyes!

Anxiety... Hatred... Anger...
    Seething from within...
A sinister grin...
 ...and a desire to kill...
A passion to see what is real...
 ...and what is unreal...

A murderous intent...
Seen from the eyes of fire...
Red like blood... 
 ...Red like fire...
Fierce and violent... 
 ...Filled with hatred and anger...

Eyes that of a cornered fox...
 ...Eyes that of a hungry wolf...
     ...Eyes that of a wounded tiger...
         ...Eyes that burn in hatred and anger...
... Against lies and those who oppress the weak!
    ... Against those who make the weak suffer!

Eyes that can see through a soul...
Eyes that can reveal secrets and lies untold...
 ...Both good will and transgressions unfold...
As if your vain life was retold...

Eyes so deep and limitless...
Like the abyss... 
 ...It is bottomless!
Glaring through life and death...
 ...Eyes so fearless!

These are my eyes...
I can see through all your filthy lies...
Never can you deny your disillusion...
 ...from these eyes of mine...
From these Eyes of Fire!

Good twist in the end.

At first, I thought that: OMG, whose eyes are this evil? T.T But happy to find out that these eyes only hates the evilness of human being. ^^

Cool. ^^
Happy rally. 🙂

I was wondering whose eyes they were, and greatly surprised with the ‘twist’ …your eyes! Glad you ended on that note…makes the passion in the poem even more heartfelt.

it felt gore yet somehow vindictive…

Wow… I’m really glad I can’t see your eyes right now, haha! Great description, though. Awesome imagery.

Gulp! Um…I think I’m pretty safe from your eyes of fire–not much evil going on here. But that picture…scary…

Hmm…foreboding.

This one definitely gave me chills. It’s refreshing to see some dark poetry in the Poets Rally. Please visit my contribution at http://lolarati.blogspot.com/2011/09/haiku-challenge-magic.html.

OOOh scary. Sounds like the evil eye.

Loved it! Dark poems always give me chills, and yours was no exception. I love the flow of your poem, and the style – how each line starts in a different place, it kept the moment of the poem going. Wonderful job! Thanks for sharing 🙂
