SILENCE SHOUTS

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

Midnights choir
Has lost its voice
A bearded night
With silence shouts
Clothed in darkness
A forbidden veil
A heart that screams
A bitter gale.

Shadows line
A lonely road
Orphaned moments
Without a home
Chaliced curses
Who walk in fire
A breathing dragon
Ragged briar.

Hours now
Heads look down
To the hard
Bitter ground
Twisted roses
Fight for life
Loves dying breath
A sharpened knife.

    Good rhyme and meter in a poem of dark isolation in a threatening world where it is dog eat dog and the devil take the rest. Nicely done
