Mercy In Black ~*Marge Tindal*~  Upon the cast of circle she comes, your witness to bear The gravedigger stands ready waiting eagerly in the lair Not without her canting has she bound you to the grave Angel Of Black Mercy descends to cast you on your way How dark the soul that none do cry No tears of grief spill in goodbye Fear ye not, the taking back You shall be tended by Mercy In Black ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

the picture with this one is awesome....i'm reminded of "The Crow". a dark, late night write. i like the tone...the last four lines almost read like a headstone. haunting... I do not regret the things i've done, |

No intent to play on words but this is a very dark piece from you Marge, and quite captivating. Well done! |

Marge, it's a surprise to see this style from you, but, I must say that you write the dark well. This is very classical and haunting in tone, and the picture enhances the thought perfectly~ Melissa~ |
