the pilgrims of the bog sing songs of freedom shaping mud into spears of nature’s wrath
Tag: senryu
after dark kids gather round to listen to the stories hissed by a serpent with lanterns for scales
warships steer into the fog only to be greeted by razor glass winds
summer after dawn a second sun rises and slits open its throat
even under the weight of stars the forest grim stands its ground
summer dusk the smell of ash overpowers frail human senses
storms buried beneath tongue the pilgrim hums a tune of solitude
summer after dawn your shadow becomes the shape of rain
rebellion ignites in the hollow of trees sway and march into the morning mist
nap on summer sand and the ground devours dreams
