hauntings...

[anirbas]

these near hauntings...
no benign visits from ghosts of the past...
or phantasms with lasting complaints...
nor harmless save for their ear piercing
screams, banshees...these hauntings...
be monsters from the past,
with claws and teeth;
devoid of remorse...
monsters,
that never
yet died...
therefore,
making them
a living nightmare
to be reckoned with,
day by day by day by day...

As always, Nir, am in awe and greatest respects with your words.
here is a megre offering of my own.. x Soul


~

that the fingers of the unholy,
reached and stroked softly,
the skin of the virgin child
and the blood, which stained the
bed linens, was as stark
as the stiff whiteness,
coating the room
from floor - too ceiling
and across the hall,
where even the most deepest shadows
lost their meaning..

Nir - there are so many monsters who never learned the art of dying gracefully .. or even just nipping off through another dimension, thereby vacating this one ... *humph ... a very moving poem that reminds us, sometimes there is worse than mere phantom could offer ... *shudder*

I know that's right, Shell...And thank you...Sabrina
