Ode to Man II

Ode to Man II

And she who would feed upon my flesh

had best beware

for I am the Angel of God

and I will avenge the destruction

of my Christ; the sanctity of man.

You cannot slay such innocence

with your b*****d words.

You cannot destroy such beauty

with such vile intentions.

You cannot own the world

with your slippery desires;

Eve has already been there.

And so leave the stage

for man to manage

as he,

and he alone,

walks the Earth

with conviction.

Your poems are like small individual paintings that breathe life into my heart and soul..Good job

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you Laurie, that is such kind praise.

[R Smith]

I know others see this as man fighting back against women subduing us but I also see us shouting to those who seek to overthrow our world with their ideals and religions and kill us if we don't accept them, guess that's just me huh!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha it was merely tongue in cheek following from a Frieda/April piece.

[R Smith]

yep, thought I was wrong.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Ok, I get it...no offering you an apple!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha there is so much fruit to choose from Kelly. Inventiveness is good. This piece was tongue in cheek following a Frieda?April collaboration. The power those two command is scary so this is man fighting back lol!

[Lyn Anderson]

This has an anger, and an edge to it.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Yup you gals have a lot to answer for lol!

[Botania]

Conviction to purity is not just for man/men. He is not alone. Love the angelic reference. The Earth and my soul cries for such words of defending, believing, and honoring God!!! Thank you John. Beautiful.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

It is written in defense and in anger at an attack upon men by other potesses!
