A Poem by Chris G. Vaillancourt

A presence falls into the darkness of the daylight. 
I am waiting to meet it with anticipation. 
Evil sheds like slipping reptiles of hate. 
Shattering the olive oil of desire. 
As quick as it arrived. 
It was serenely gone. 
And I wondered. 
why it 
dried. 

A demon danced like evil inside of my heart.
I cringed like a woman giving  open birth.
I chant like wounded old rosary beads.
Killing the desire for living alive.
Ending the mocking ugly face.
I only thought that
it would always
seem to
end.
