Metamorphoses

What caotic thoughts may pass
through one's dying mind?

Death settles within the corners
  of thought...
who can complain?

Knowing no depth of Sheol
...can char love.

Author notes

Prompt:

“And she, dying again, made no complaint
(for what complaint had she save that she was loved?)”

It was in a epic poem, Metamorphoses By Ovid

    What a brilliant little piece this is. I like the questioning in the first stanza and it really rolls into the soul. A lovely job indeed, take a bow.
