The Grip (Free verse) by drnick
The moon hangs from the sky a cherry red in howling autumn night, ground stumbling and blind. Darkness absolute creeps up roots from soot and dead, into bare branches who reach at vibrence. With cold, starved fingers they claw in dispair while a stunning wind rips across the tortured woods. By her absence, how they long for that throbbing cherry red moon in their palms.

Up the ladder: Love - In the Noughties
Down the ladder: When You Wish
