Belladonna

Eliot’s Belladonna you wished to be,


Pompous, selfish,


And bored,


Defying me!


 

I rather wanted you to be,


Simple and innocent like Lil of The Waste Land,


Also a little bit indulgent,


And Friendly.


 

Alas! You like Medusa turned into a nightmare!

 

You do not know how to love; you do not care!

Thank you

Thank you so much for the comment. Hapiness and sadness are integral parts of our life. I think the poets should write focusing on all the aspects of life. :)
