Re: Creative Submissions
A World Without Temerity
Simultaneous birth and death - the sharp pain of appreciation,
Succeeded only by exhausted surrender - the flame never more
Than a flicker without the fuel of a compassionate memory...
This maternal precision of creation is eclipsed by
A regretful ferocity of quiet neglect as a bloody chalice,
Delicately filled and then abandoned, is deprived of lips...
Truths and promises are lost to the world, discarded,
As labored footsteps left on sands of sacrifice
For the slow silence of insecurity to erase...
The ink is dry.. I read, and sigh..... Then burn it..
