Hillside dark, water calm
A single lantern floating
Veil shredded, flowers dead
A sudden, rotten, bloating
Bride alive, Corpse husband
A shovel with sticky coating
Crunching earth, shifting waves
A victim left ungloating.
Crime unseen, story untold
The lantern no longer floating.
Grotesque imagery here, but very lovely!! Great work.
Thank you!
