OctPoWriMo 31 - Lurking in the Dark

Today is the last day of OctPoWriMo 2017. This was my sixth (!) year doing this, and I am still learning so much every time.


Lurking in the Dark

What is lurking in the dark?
Hiding from all living eyes?
Skulking in the misty murk?
What is lurking in the dark
In the woods behind the kirk?
To seek it out would be unwise.
What is lurking in the dark—
Hiding from all living eyes?

  2. Beautiful poem. I like the repetition, as if asked by someone whose thoughts are on constant replay.
    And then... "To seek it would be unwise" could be interpreted in so many different ways! Well done!
