Rating: 5.0


Damn he's still good! One minute nothing,
Then in sparse woodland he steps out.
And so quick too this destroyer of Valac,
In their War In Heaven duelling bout...

Johnny Angel: Demon For Hire. Chapter 4. Part 1 Of 5.
The Blood Witches Of Bavaria.

We then stare each other down forever,
Finally this Angel Of Death smiles at me.
Then he utters, long time no see Jonzeithiu,
A very very long time Gabriel an eternity.

What do you want Gabriel you know what I seek,
I shall find and what I will mercilessly kill for.
And my plans for Lucifer when all gathered,
You know what I will do to my former mentor.

But to do that you must first survive Jonzeithiu,
Or shall I call you by your chosen earth name.
Johnny Angel a demon for hire your mind betrays,
Hired for dirty work that puts others to shame.

You're going to need more than your teeth, talons,
And harsh language to defeat The Blood Witches.
So I've brought a few interests on offer to you,
In order to defeat Azsalem and all her vile bitches.

Now I smile at what's now displayed before me,
As Gabriel presents death and utter destruction.
An entire heavenly arsenal of divine weaponry,
Crafted to remove any supernatural obstruction.

We converse on each weapon's pros and cons,
Forgetting we once tried to kill each other.
Gabriel offers Dragon's Breath which I take,
From my one-time divine but deadly brother.

In total I select five from the fifty displayed,
Two or three to be used of where I do venture.
To slaughter that vile viper's nest and Azsalem,
The others used later if I survive this adventure.

Beware of Azsalem for she is The Mistress Of Lies,
She'll die protecting her precious Black Runestone.
Without it she and all her bitches become barren,
And you! You are the truest retribution ever sown.

For there's a War coming, Lucifer's second War,
You know it and all of Heaven knows it too.
The Black Runestones and Talisman can vastly help,
For we always watch what you're trying to do.

Enough of my chit-chat now get into character,
Your powers will soon reveal where hundreds nest.
And it's strange to say, armed with these weapons,
You are the first demon to be so Heavenly Blessed.

Do not tire! Do not stop!
Never give up!
Never surrender!
Kill them all! Spare none!
Or die trying!
For you can make me, Archangel Gabriel,
The Angel Of Death,
Feel sinfully proud!
For they and Azsalem would relish forever,
In killing you!
And Johnny, take a little enjoyment in killing,
I always do...

There is a longer written version of the interaction between Johnny and Gabriel and one day I might put the whole version up all 5 parts in one poem. Each part has more exposition verses but slows down the pacing. So I cut them out so the pace tightens and is relentless. So maybe one day when it doesn't time out I'll put said version up.

Wow...this is such an outstanding poem Shaun! It seems to draw deeply from rich biblical themes, mythology and comic book heroes/ villains yet puts a highly original spin on them. It's definitely a 10 from me!

Thanks again Dominic glad you enjoyed it. And you are right I just pulled many threads together and weaved this ongoing series and to keep my imagination ticking over. Just wanted to deliver something a bit different for there aren't that many new dark imaginings poems out there. Thanks again and take care.
