"The Air Is Clean"
  by Bud Edward


o' fool pretender
empty vessel
to invoke her name and be filled
to be carried upon the winds of breath and thought
to be moved and molded by blood and heart
alien
alien
alien
loved enemy
loved other
loved temptress, destroyer
forewarned and forlorn
read the letters not the words
sentence unveiled yet unseen
desire, hope - LIES
wanted lie
embrace the fate of it
omen denied
into the fire with a smile
into the fire with faith
wondering why consumed
wondering why destroyed
instead of purified
o' fool martyr
sought death at the hands of love for fear of hate
yet hate a true and loyal mistress shall reclaim
power, glory, vengeance
reject the siren
seek
seek and destroy
hunted huntress
your tears will extinguish your fire
and the air is clean

I normally don't like hate poems but this one is so different. I liked the part about the fool martyr looking for love but only found death. Needs nothing.

Beautiful. I can relate to these ideas. I adore the "hunted huntress" part.
