Plea of stillness:
Uncertainty, the shoots of grass
Hairs almost pulling out
Scalp pressure of goblins

Discomfiting peace,
Lack of the elements
No wind no water no air
No energy no void
Fire-void canceling
                  its own body

Baby of rushes & fur
           Moss angst
Disbelieving clock hand
Of war of ghosts

Ancestral howl of stone
Gargoyle bone crushing my grin
Teethless
                   Numb
                                Hair of a
                                Frigid current

Black to brown to verdure
Mold kissing trail
             Prismatic decay
Disgust & beauty an outcry


angola-78211 (1).jpg


Lack of a voice
No thought no tongue no lips
Nothing spent nothing earned
                  Words sent nowhere

Bounds of clustered mine cart
Rust on the crankshaft
              Mildew in the mine
Gems of humidity
                   Sweat

Fecund silence
              bore lack of an absence
No glass no opal no chrome
Metals into black
           Deep black that wept

Black stolid face that
Never mourned
            mountain of triumph
Infamy of misunderstanding

Nearly torn hair
            Hand-combed gnashing
Teethless
              Smile of
                          Expression

Crags

Sort:  

Sooty
shadow sills
sinuous slender slants
succumbing stings stabbing so
standing still shadows seem serpentine
silly somehow, sallow siren
still searching silently
sing serendipitously
Slayed

What touching verses, a little sad. They are thinking about the eternal.

Indeed. Thank you @magnata!

That was very descriptive of an isolated group of crags. I could almost feel the stillness and emptiness of the area but the strength of the proud crags standing tall, always watching in silence. I bet they could tell a story or two. Thank-you d-pend for this strong silent moment!
