The Swordsman

The Swordsman


A swordsman inside me
In my flesh
Where the heart is
Along the walls of arteries
My veins slashed
Cut.
Elasticity tested
And the threshold
To pain.
The swordsman now
Holding my heart
Smashing
Oh blood…
Drip… drop…
Drip….drop…
Squeezing
The juice of life
Of emotion
My blood now in tears
Blood is crying
Imagine blood crying.
The swordsman
Tearing me
Swishing with eyes closed
With passion he strikes
Left… right
Right…left.

Striking all
Around my heart

Drop.
Dead.

This is the first time that I saw "blood crying" "The Swordsman" did impress me with the figures of imagination and creativity.

"The Swordsman" can strike imagination and inspire the creative veins of intuition and emotions.

I Salute the Author of "The Swordsman".
