Faraway

Faraway
confused
and bare
- an empty space
Head crackles
white noise
turned black
Violent
uncontrollably
chaotic
swirling dust
settles
into stillness
The Hunter
and the hunted
hiding
shivering silently
in big black trees
Twisted bones
- a boy
lost in time
creature
of darkness
scared and alone
a fairy child


- The Bedlam

I love the font you used here, and the different sizes to accentuate the effects of the words. Beautiful.... as always xxx

I agree with Elloa, the font and size really helped me to read your poem with a lot of expression! Very powerful combination of words. I would have loved to see your performance! An interesting and dynamic word painting and wonderful accompanying photo.
