Doom! ! ! Loom, broom! Room of life, Waiting for the end. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Death or destruction always provokes thought and it gives us mysterious effect. Life faces death after birth is truth.Peter has said the truth from gate. An amazing poem of the day I have read again.
Beautiful choice and arrangement of words to create a powerful effect
Peter and Michael, the two characters portrayed in this poem are powerful as the poem depicts. Peter at the gates and Michael by the throne. Insightful piece of poetry.
In life nor at the throne, In death he may not pass the gate To come before the throne: ' /// penned beautifully
A thoughtfully envisioned poem about life and death and their respective positions.
The drama wheel of life is mysterious. Adelaide Crapsey has greatly observed this and beautifully expressed the status of both peter in gate and Michael in throne. Both Peter and Michael from respective places have said the truth. Death is the final truth to take away everything including human bodies. There is no need to fall in ego.. Every material possession, status and fame we lose during death. Life is truth when we feel that we are souls. This is a great philosophical poem..10
I can't say that I am familiar with the works of Crapsey, must research further.
