Kit Kelen - unnumbered - as the forests vanish


unnumbered
as the forests vanish


behind the land
a mirror sky
the bone home of the gone


little house in the woods
where image and emotion live
each always daring the other


there is no way of dwelling forever
we have to pity the homeless gods
their morsels of worship

  1. Wow Kit I love this. & I love the last stanza. I think it stands alone. And oh yes- that place where image and emotion live...

  3. I second that emotion...although I feel the last 2 stanzas could be a little leaner.
