In the amphitheatre of shadows.

In the amphitheatre of shadows.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

In writing for
an audience of ancient ghosts,
the metaphysical shivers
echoed through
the chambers of minds
holding the memories
of those that now
walk through darkened corridors
over hollow grounds.
In the amphitheatre of shadows
a little church,
a group of tombstones
dressed in lichen moss
talk of the occasion.

'... of those that now - walk through darkened corridors - over hollow grounds. '

Is so often in the hidden corners of place and mind, recognition of the truth is most acute. Takes more than a brief glance to understand what's been and gone. Such a sensitive yet logically laid post, andrew.
