Poison Darts Poem by anais vionet

Poison Darts

Rating: 4.5


Shakespeare said, "make
pieces of the beast and his
confederates"

My parents voted
today - filling out and then
casting their ballots.

It was a pleasing
privilege - even as an
anxious observer.

Their two small darts at
the heart of the snarling beast.
Saints let them strike true.

'Their two small darts at the heart of the snarling beast. Saints let them strike true.' I have a feeling I know who they voted for, the political division in America, reminds me of Hamlet, Macbeth, sadly storm clouds on the horizon

'Their two small darts at the heart of the snarling beast. Saints let them strike true' - well said! Hope, you will write a poem also after the result of the voting.
