Hurts Costumed as Lesson

Lesson as Costumed Hurts

_____________________________________

Hurt, mysterious, scary

Bundled scars, pain wrapped

Holding tears

Pressed tightly

Gifts bestowed with shrugs of

Hopelessness

Of shrugs with bestowed gifts

Tightly pressed tears

Holding wrapped pain

Scars bundled

Scary, mysterious hurt

Life Among the Living

——————————————————–

Lichens and Moss

Pale blue, gray and dark green

Damp and ruffled, delicately layered

Decorated branches

Weighted with

Beauty

With weighted

Branches decorated

Layered delicately ruffled and damp

Green dark, and gray, blue pale

Moss and lichens.
