"Dismantle this! " Death swiped his scythe-
Spirit fled from the body prone.
"You have made my job so easy!"
Death sneered at the shivering spirit
"That wall between east and west Devano-
when restored- you dismantled it.!
All those stacks of laws and policies-repealed!
Anarchy is a bright and shining light for me- Begone!"
I have been reading about 'Symbolism' all week.
I tripped over cold air and been leveled by wind...Intellectualism sneered at me
from the page yesterday and an Anarchist was shaking his blocky fist
at me this morning. So-here's to it!

Getting more and more philosophical these days. This one sure made you think.
Loved your Symbolic 55
Thanks for playing, thanks for this very intellectual story, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
OK...One more thing.
BINGO!!!!
Ah, interesting 55. I like the opening lines, 'Death swiped his scythe-/ Spirit fled from the body prone.' Great image here.
I agree with Mary. I also like your use of alliteration with the sssss sound. This would sound great at a reading.
Happy 55 Friday!
I loved this in-your-face poem. It was dangerously fascinating, izzy!
I like the opening lines. There is indeed much symbolism in a scythe.
ha...nice....anarchy never lasts...i talk with my gov students about this...there are a few self proclaimed anarchist...someone always gains the power...and then power always corrupts...
