loved ones remain forever.
four vessels from the heart.
four fingers crude enough to bite and crawl.
in death shall all remember
the manic halls where walked not once
but twice the fog of mammals
confined in doom, each hanging like a Lord!
to ill-afford this circumstance.
we are all as one
as each between
the carpet and the crawling green.
yet still we mourn the Summer woods
their greed and obstinance.
each thirteenth day
grows stronger than the Yuletide logs
as they echo with the barking cats
as they shed their skin
with their gleeful smiles
more beautiful than our world has ever seen.
words over all.
this world of aged screams stand lost.
what have we beneath the armour that we wear?
we urge relentless war.
we pursue our demons
ten years away from where our daughters weep
from where our mothers mourn
and sleep beneath the corners of our smiles.
what colour this
this Earth on which we dwell?
loved ones remain forever.
from me to us
in the twilight of supreme.
though dead you are
the one I fear the most.

Melvin this carries with it a feeling of gloom and the air of death. The mood about the same as the one that I'll post tomorrow. An enigmatic poem of lost wandering. Well done my friend
Exquisite poetry every line,
in death shall all remember
the manic halls where walked not once
but twice the fog of mammals
confined in doom, each hanging like a Lord
Love this stanza so much.
Always my teacher forever my dear friend. 🌹
