Silence the Foe by Gloriaea

Silence the Foe Gloriaea Horror Horror Blood poured from my eyes Every word you penned Dug through my irisesBut why foil the ink Stuff it back in the pen Hold one end to their jugular Until they eat their stained paper Why not Pull out a fresh sheet And let your heart bleed Color every page With the kaleidoscope of you Until the lights shines Various frequencies amplified Blinding our skulls Until they've expanded Mute the poet Cut off his chords Or find your voiceAnd illuminate the stageMore from Gloriaea ↓@_gloriaea on InstagramGloriaea’s Atelier on SubstackShe has an upcoming release planned for 2026. Mentioned in this episode:Write After with One Poem OnlyWrite After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. If you want to join: Listen to a poem from the month of April on One Poem Only, then write your own in response. I will pick one for each day to read in June for a special series: One Poem After 🍎🍏 Submissions close May 15.Write After Submissions Form
