The Ladies of Horror
Picture-Prompt Writing Challenge!
Last Thouhts
by Angela Yuriko Smith
This view from where I lay and decay:
a vista of moss, a horizon in miniature
whispers of green as my vision dims…
and so go all my hopes and dreams.
A vista of moss, a horizon in miniature.
My fabric in time is unraveling…
and so goes all my hopes and dreams,
A bad choice, a wrong turn, a bad date.
My fabric in time is unraveling.
We didn’t know each other well.
A bad choice, a wrong turn, a bad date.
From the grave I hope to know you better.
We didn’t know each other well
this view from where I lay and decay.
From the grave I hope to know you better…
and so goes all my hopes and dreams.
