CAMELOT FANTASIES

Spilling forth my soul
My intimate thoughts
Bleeding upon a virgin page
For the reader to savour
Hold close to their heart
Each word left untouched
Preciously preserved forevermore

#becomingfragile
...

Shield thy gaze
You have been warned
She’ll hold you captive
Serpent Sedusa of the mind
Comes a-slithering
In your darkest dreams
When your defences are down
And none can hear your screams

#darklines
...
Silence falling as a mourning shroud
To smother and suffocate all around
Morbid fascination holds me rapt
Enmeshed within coils of a dreaded fate

#prosewords
...
The heavens silently mourn his passing
Tears raining down upon a shrouded land
A raven cries amidst a murder of crows
Beaded gaze glittering from the shadows
My steadfast companions of this final watch
Wishing his soul a safe final journey home

#PoemTrail 312

(🎨Consuelo Parra)
...

Obsidian ruin that pervades the very air
Malevolent whispers encircle speaking your name
From the shadows they arise in full legion
To persecute and enslave without hesitation
And behind them all the Darkness came

#SoYouWriteSat
...
As a Phoenix from smouldering ashes
A terrible beauty is born at last
To blaze a dazzling trail across the heavens
For her to burn was but Fate’s cruel destiny
A flame sheltered within the arms of Mars
She would burn with the glory of a thousand fires

#TallVerse 11
...
What is seemingly lost but not forgotten
Shall be unearthed in the final consideration
Reanimated for the amusement of capricious Gods
Mysterious creatures and unknown spirits cavort
In mesmerising displays that deny all explanation

#BardBits 98
...
With but a whisper
You stole my breath
Enraptured I fell
Unto your regard
Your lips formed words
I could not absorb
For the blood that thundered
A pulsing rhythm of the heart
This maelstrom of emotions
That with but a whispered word
You started....

#SensualSaturday
...

A rubicon crossed long ago
Burning bridges left in ash
So many years & even more friends
I never looked back
The past a sealed tomb
What’s done is done
My soul had no more room
To the horizon I look
My gaze full of dreams
All that I left blown far away
All that I wish here today
...
