engorged buds of red
the scent sweet for a moment
masking the decay
Thanks to dverse poets for the red inspiration. Visit them for details and additional contributions.

they said
never fear they said
just follow the path they said
no defeat they said
straight on to glory they said
only whispers now (they said)
Perhaps it’s my current state of mind, but the photo brought to mind fallen armies and (for you Tolkien fans) barrow-wights so … here we are. Thanks to Sue for the inspiration. And remember all depressing interpretations are my own! 😉
Then Chaos
I originally wrote this way back in June of 2018 but it still (sadly) fits my mood AND although it may be bending the rules a bit to use an old piece, it (more happily) perfectly fits Linda’s final JusJoJan prompt “chaos”.
Thanks Linda. Sorry I wasn’t more present in January but … well you know. CHAOS.

circle of life
Birth and death unite
A solitary cocoon
Ashes to ashes
Thanks to Ronovan Writes for a great challenge that made me think AND reminded me of one of my fave songs.
Oh David Bowie, how I love you!!
the death of empathy
the whole of knowledge
cannot fill the empty void
if empathy dies
Thanks for the double inspiration to Ronovan Writes and WOTD.
