Love In The Regrettable Garden

Many years ago

I was visiting a cemetery

when I noticed

I was being watched

And

then I noticed I was being followed

by a crow with handsome eyes.

 

He took his time

and I took mine

as we strolled among the dead

and then he left as crows will do

when the sunset calls them home.

 

I could have been sad

and shed some tears

to find myself alone

but I could not

because I know

that

when you find true love

and lose it

you are bound to meet again.

Ruins Of Man

The trees are gone

and everything green

the grasses, the flowers, the vicious weeds.

 

Murdered by machine

buried in sand

nothing is left

but  the ruins of man

Daily Addictions Prompt: Spoil

Let Us Prey

/ animar64 / Leave a comment

The thing about saying grace is that anyone can  say  them-anyone.

I’ve learned prayers

to protect me from the dead

to chase away evil

to forgive my sins.

I’ve said grace

over meals

before journeys

 before I  fall asleep.

 

I sang those  prayers

raged those prayers

obediently

past gritted teeth

through my darkness

every single day.

 

So who will stand over me

after I’ve died

and ask that I sleep

forever

God let it be

forever

will they prey that I do not rise

and that I never walk again.
