Poems
Jul 2020
In the Final Throes
Iniquitous priests and cannibals
Absolve
Then feed
Upon childhood dreams
I cannot breathe
Any longer
In this unfiltered
Parsimonious pond
Must
Push back what entangles
Must
Pull away from a myriad of angry souls
Must
Lift this ill-harboring mind free
Agony
He is my constant friend
And
He reminds me
I'm (somewhat) alive
And
That one shiny day
Along the suspicious river
Difficult
I will finally slay him
BLT's continued challenge - to write a poem using the Merriam-Webster word of the day, parsimonious.
