Dark they fell
wings of death’s foreboding
fell messengers
what do they tell?
“All is lost
lost are they
who venture close
or come this way”
and so a tear
futility falls
falls with the last
none are left
none at all
Over at Saturday Centus Jenny Matlock’s prompt “I’ve Officially Reached Critical Mass” appropriate considering the asteroid that exploded this week
Intense and intriguing. Nice one.
