  1. this is an attempt to use all of the words,, and create a vision outside the collective comfort zone… i am not sure if it works,, but there are some rather good images….

    “baffled”

  3. Here’s mine:

    Beloved

  4. Prisoner

    Ashes have fallen
    past the moon,
    luminous in its light.

    Showers of fleeting stars
    destroyed by Heaven’s
    insatiable hunger.

    The sky inhales
    star-ruins,
    prisoners now on earth.

  5. Fantastic, Pam! The imagery is gorgeous.
