The Ladies of Horror
Picture-Prompt Writing Challenge!

Sealed by Her Fate
by J.C. Jance

Raked across the skin,

needles true and thin.

Marks left behind

mark the passage of time.

Runes to tell the tale

of a land destined to fail.

Her ancestors scream of

All that was unseen.

.

Waters rise

Mountains crumble

Mud, rock, and detritus

Sheer from her face

.

This place now scared,

no life shall breed.

Where once there was

my fallen seed.
