In this place where dragons slain
lay, beds of bones, and winds whip wild
leaves back unto the clawing earth
and on this bleached cold pyre you lie
consumed by all we once fought brave,
to hold and have and tender spills
a love fire tested, burnished, red
now faded, folly shows true face
And to the heart the arrow true,
harsh barbed with lies and sweet deceit
light fades, sun slips and darkness wraps
her arms in coldest loves embrace.
Whatever you’re reading, it’s making your poetry rock.
