trinkets in torment...




maimed woods and metals
lean on each other to make
a new kind of make-shift nest

grasses twine and bend
offering some charity
stray coin in a thread-bare cap

I was really taken with your idea in this. Good writing.

It takes the eye of a poet to see the significance of an old wreck. Each line here carries its weight.

your last two stanzas are SO profoundly true

I really like this, especially the last line. Spirits abandon trinkets. It is so true!

Scenes such as this are poignant as they hold unspoken stories to be imagined by wordsmiths.
