A repost with a bit of editing...


Each crevice, cove
mountain or strong tower
any place from the sun
inwhich to hide, cower
he exposes grandiose
Wah-lah! The Witch!
stealer of men's souls
cold,unfeeling [edited]!

Even nights without moon
find his eyes searching
like vulture upon crest
loitering, lurking
watching each move
in a hurry to make haste
to stab her into
& lay her to waste

absence preferable
to his infamous ire
she hides again
but he never tires
rather, he muses
his self righteous notions
secure in his beliefs
BITTERNESS,
strong potion...

Tiersdin...just beginning to catchup (not Ketchup, i prefer mustard) on
your prose work as well.  Well diverse subject matter, with fantastic
plots and twists.  ~salute~ to your sense of
style
