the carrion feast —
strip me down to bone
to scatter me to stone
and bleach me to sun
wash away my stain
for i do grow ever weary

The thought of us being stains to rinse away makes me so sad and also relieved feeling. Emotive writing, Michael. I really enjoy it.
Embracing the ephemeral… Glad you liked it.
Great imagery, Michael! A profound poem!

I’m glad it was able to connect with you. 💙
