POEM STARTER
Mysteries of the Night
Whether something natural and beautiful like the stars, or something more sinister, write a poem that focuses on things that are most prominent at night.
weight of night
the whispers of darkness
consume
only the cracks beneath
the fissures of untempered glass
deception pools
creating pressures
into the corners
the floor, bed, and walls
now
covered in shards, blood, and worms
the image of life,
even if for tonight,
lays barren on the pillowcase -
it’s traces fading with the dawn.
