A poem could be of satire,
Perhaps a quaint fable too.
Even one of great mystery,
From a reader's point of view.
And in the world of poetry,
Where a poet loves to dwell.
There hides in plain sight,
Dark poems that cast a spell.
Enchantments for every reader,
That falls into their trap.
Promising titles that deceive,
To deliver misleading mishap.
All that glitters is not gold,
Beware the poems that conceal.
A veiled sharp poem metaphor,
For poetry cuts do never heal.

Wonderful poem Shaun...we poets are weavers of light and dark dreams.I feel that enchantment is badly needed in this modern technology obsessed world. And yes ' dark poems' do ' cast a spell'. It's certainly an intriguing ten from me!
