A breath on the page
The words run
And so little stays
Paper becomes dust
As together we age
Our memories and fears
We share them as one
A breath on a page

Orchids delivered
Not just one
A whole mess
Our friend Quill
No more
The flowers steal
His last breath
Now, I’m not saying
He won’t be missed
But let me introduce
Your new Wildwalk host
Who goes by the name
Fliddais

Hello Wild Walk #writers

Today I give you something that I am horribly allergic to. Gather enough of them in a room and I can't breathe.

Stepping toward
Before the sight
Smelling the flight of
The flies that swarmed
Here in the cold
The night air was
Warmed with decay
An old terror crawled
But you pushed it away
Steadied and bold
You knew in your heart
That here you must stay

Ashen skeletons;
Remnants of what has been lost
Crumble in the wind.

A timed existence
Maintains the least
Resistance to
The status quo
Knowing you lack
The mind to mention
The will to question
That maybe your life
Has passed beyond
Your own attention

Overtaken with such hate

Just as before
It happens again
We dig up the bones
Tell a story that bends
We burn and destroy
A means to an end
Bury the ashes
And start over again

The candles are lit
Let the festivities begin
As the blood falls upon us
To cleanse us of all sin
We’ll sing and dance
Forget about the year
That has been
The candles are lit
We awaken in new skin

Again I awake
To emptiness beside
Such a beautiful face
With no emotion to hide
Tomorrow may be the same
Yet my hope will remain
That a new day will bring
What I believe is inside

The river returns my breath
Yet again I fade

The waves grow higher
As I draw near
Fear swelling in my chest
As the ocean takes
A defensive position
As if the waters feel fear
I raise up my arms and
Promise no harm
Will come from me
The waves begin to calm
And return to the sea

I hear footsteps in the mud
Tears falling on stone

The thoughts in my mind
Strangled for the time
Being as I find, not so much
An idea as a possibility
Of a tangled future foretold
As this fever takes hold of
The thoughts in my mind
Still tangled in rhyme

A small song in their frail heart
Winter’s melody

Now, closer to the surface

Cold but now home
Bones frozen from
My chosen lot in life
The wife serves me tea
Scalding, burning
I can’t see past the steam
I enter a dream
I was drugged
It would seem, I
Awaken, back in ice
A note pinned to my chest
“Thanks for the kidney,
That was nice.”

Wrapped in darkness
I find my peace
Alone but not lonely
With the dead I weep
The winds tear my skin
But I do not bleed
Wrapped in darkness
With nothing left of me

From spark to ember
And ember to flame
The winds rise up
Only ashes reman
The ashes rise up
They remember my name
The anger returns
My hatred still burns
I remember my flame

I struggled to think of a word for this one, but these leaves shone in the night like flames. So I guess that works

The bare trees give no shelter

Confused and beguiled
Diseased and defiled
And after awhile
The spores
Began to spread
A war inside my head
Something began to grow
Never knowing
In the end
Believing I was alive
But most certainly dead

Under the old hickory tree
The spider slides down a thread
Echoes of muted laughter
Remind us of the dead
The threads, once rope
Swings for the condemned
Now the spiders carry
The ghosts which they shed

Early 90’s #reality
Mortal Kombat
Fatalities
Cheap weed and Mountain Dew
Taco Bell, the bathroom used
Muted laughter and victory cries
I had the win, but time to die
“Finish Him!”
I looked at you
As if despised
I tore out your heart
And held it to the sky
