Hope ((Etheree))

by Brookie   Mar 12, 2015


Grave
robbers
visit me
while I slumber,
stealing dreams I've tucked
underneath the carcass
of hope; as they place their own.
I no longer sleep at night fore
the memory of you still lingers
underneath covers of insanity.

    I love the story line, the wording, it touches the reader and that is the essence of a great poem.
    Technically tis verse is perfect. There is a typo:
    "fore" should be for and I think centering the poem would give a more refined look to it...
    Thank you for the read, enjoyed it!

    Hi,

    Etheree's are a great form and you have nailed it.

    Well done on a wonderful dark piece. Nice and gritty and fully of imagery. My favourite part is this: 'stealing dreams I've tucked underneath the carcass of hope...'

    Excellent!

    Take care,

    Michael
