Revenge

A word set poem posted to AFD. This time the words avenging, riotous, dregs, ennui, obsessed, grieving, and repress were supplied by me, flipping through a dictionary.

"Revenge"

Avenging angel
wings of riotous color
dimmed by neglect

Feathers singed
soot smudged
on pale skin

Delicate form
shrouded
by rags and revenge

Shadow gliding
amid the dregs
gripped by ennui

Obsessed
grieving
innocence lost

Wandering
unseen
unseeing

Striving to repress
guilt, pain
newborn conscience
