The Gates of Hell
This poem is acrostic and describes Rodin's sculpture The Gates of Hell...
Armageddon's final sightseeing tour,
Utopian visage of Lucifer's lure.
Gargoyles barded bathed in black,
Sentry guarded, no way back.
Turbulent reminders of unsettled scores.
Eternal demonic purgatory door.
Relentless struggles where limbo begins,
On going battles between morality and sin.
Death surrounds the only way in.
Insatiable resistance to Satan's last quell.
Nomadic nonexistence through the Gates of Hell.
