This poem delves into the speaker’s admiration and reverence for a woman whose beauty and spirit are depicted through rich, evocative imagery. The speaker views the woman through “spiritual lenses,” suggesting a deep, soulful connection and perception that goes beyond the physical.
The woman’s heart is described as “violet” and “resembles a diamond,” combining the rarity and preciousness of a diamond with the mystical, regal qualities of the color violet. This duality highlights her unique and invaluable nature. Her spirit, compared to a “chandelier illuminating in a mansion,” suggests a bright, radiant presence that lights up her surroundings with elegance and grace.
The comparison of her soul to the “Salvator Mundi piece of art” further emphasizes her rarity and exceptional value, likening her to one of the most famous and expensive artworks in the world. This metaphor underscores the idea that her essence is one-of-a-kind and highly treasured.
The speaker refers to her as the “seductive violet,” capturing the allure and magnetic charm she possesses, which causes men to “riot” over her beauty. This vivid imagery portrays her as a figure of great desire and admiration, whose presence on canvas (possibly metaphorical for her impact on the world) leaves a powerful impression.
Despite the attention she garners, she is described as “grippy towards my kingship,” indicating her loyalty and attachment to the speaker. The term “kingship” conveys a sense of protection and authority, suggesting that the speaker feels a duty to safeguard her from “thirsty vultures”—a metaphor for those who seek to exploit or harm her.
In summary, the poem paints a portrait of a woman whose beauty, spirit, and soul are portrayed with luxurious and rare imagery. It emphasizes her profound impact on those around her and her special connection with the speaker, who is devoted to protecting her from those who might not appreciate her true worth.

This poem explores the relationship between talent and the pursuit of artistic excellence, emphasizing that talent alone is insufficient for achieving greatness. The narrator begins by recognizing that merely possessing talent does not guarantee the ability to create enduring, impactful art (“Talent isn’t never enough when you trying to make the artistry infinitely blush with my paint brush”). The metaphor of making artistry “blush” suggests a desire to evoke deep emotion and beauty through one’s work.
The “artistry in human form” serves as a personified muse, offering wisdom to the artist. It acknowledges the artist’s ambition but reminds them of the limitations imposed by time (“you can’t infinitely make me blush your limited within time”). The muse asserts its own infinite nature, contrasting the temporal constraints of human life with the boundless essence of true art (“I am infinite and beyond this life”).
The imagery of a “golden brush in the hand of the divine” elevates the concept of art to a sacred level, suggesting that the ultimate form of artistry is a divine act, beyond human reach. This underscores the notion that human efforts, while valuable, are inherently limited.
The poem concludes with the muse advising the artist that talent must be complemented by other qualities: “time, perseverance, and consistency.” These elements are essential to maintain and refine even a small part of true artistry (“Will help you keep a small fragment of me sharp and refined”). The message is clear: artistic mastery requires ongoing dedication and hard work, not just innate ability.
In summary, the poem beautifully conveys the idea that while talent is a crucial starting point, it is the combination of persistent effort and commitment over time that allows an artist to truly capture and sustain the essence of their craft.

“Elle Aime la Mort” is a poignant and thought-provoking poem that personifies death as a tangible, intimate being. The speaker recounts an encounter with a woman who expresses a deep, almost romantic yearning for death, envisioning it as a lover with whom she can share both physical and spiritual intimacy. Her words, “if you were death, live in the flesh, I would let our flesh collide,” evoke a sense of longing for a union that transcends the boundaries between life and death. The imagery of their souls giving “hi fives” and their spirits spending “quality time” together adds a playful, almost joyous dimension to this connection, ultimately culminating in an experience likened to paradise. The speaker’s departure, feeling “at peace with delight,” suggests a profound acceptance and tranquillity derived from this unique perspective on death, challenging conventional fears and presenting it instead as a source of fulfilment and serenity.

This poem explores the transformation from a state of spiritual death to one of enlightenment and spiritual vitality. Here’s a breakdown of its key elements and themes:
Initial State of Spiritual Death:
The poem begins with the speaker describing themselves as once being “amongst the walking dead,” suggesting a life devoid of spiritual awareness or vitality.
The “lifeline” implies a thread of hope or connection that keeps them from being completely lost.
Spiritual Awakening:
The shift in focus to the “spiritual which was divine” signifies a turning point where the speaker begins to seek higher, spiritual truths.
Despite being “numb and dead physically,” the speaker experiences a profound spiritual awakening, feeling “spiritually alive.”
This awakening elevates the speaker to a higher plane of existence, “high up in the sky,” where they engage with a realm beyond the physical senses.
Return to the Physical Realm:
The speaker describes a descent back to the earthly plane, “landing back on the ground from the sky.”
Upon returning, the spiritual enlightenment they achieved continues to manifest physically, “leaking through my bodily pores.”
This transformation is visible and palpable, as the speaker becomes an embodiment of grace and spiritual light.
Interaction with the World:
The speaker’s newfound spiritual illumination spreads as a “revelation” amongst those still in a state of spiritual lifelessness and mundanity.
However, this spreading of divine truth provokes a strong negative reaction from others, who “compile together to revile” against the divine aspects the speaker now represents.
The hostility and resistance from others highlight the tension between spiritual enlightenment and the unawakened masses.
Themes:
Transformation and Enlightenment: The journey from spiritual death to life emphasizes the power of spiritual awakening.
Conflict Between Spiritual and Physical Realms: The poem underscores the struggle and disconnect between the speaker’s spiritual enlightenment and the physical world’s lack of understanding or acceptance.
Isolation and Revelation: The speaker’s isolation upon returning to the physical world, despite their efforts to share their enlightenment, reveals the often solitary path of spiritual growth.
Overall, the poem conveys a profound journey of spiritual awakening, the transformative power of divine focus, and the challenges of sharing this enlightenment in a world that may not be ready to receive it.
