Far from where I am going

(It's been a while since I've posted on here. I've been taking a poetry class this past semester and it has helped me break down a bit of my writer's block. This is a poem that came out of my poetry journal.)

Sister

The phone howled out of tune
over powering everyone's slumber.

He scattered your bloody bat wings
across the cave of your life.

Your rotting eyes, swollen and black,
hair a pile of dead flowers,
a face indeterminable of expression.

A dingy dog
shot from my thrat
howling at all who would listen
threatening his life
with wooden retribution

but, I was nothing;
only a bloody razor
lying on cracked countertop.

nice use of muffin
