The Yew

The Yew

A Poem by Shownashappening

Flame-lit for a means to reveal shadows
I want to see what there is to see
Of you, of me, of things around me
What is obscured in you
Who-of-you does not speak
But prays and preys-upon pew
The yew breathes and the blood-of-forest seeps
Into new wounds and old alike
Reveal to me the depths the shadow of you speaks.

About
I'm an early middle aged neophyte in many things.. always loved reading and writing for fun (the latter being of fluctuating consistency). Basically I'm wanting to write more, whether it be vignett.. more..
