by dying breath of dragon,
did you pass
beyond witch and brew
did you detour
and, yet, by death
you come to me
your hands bloodied
by this newest war

Ty, Zayra. I have been struggling since late January, with some health issues and I did not write any poetry, nor have much energy for much...but there were poems there that waited for me. *hugs*

now you have me looking for the detour sign in the pic... and a hard-hat on the fellow...! (the word has road-construction associations to me, so it does not fit the time and place in my preconceiving mind... but it does give me a writing idea, a detour into the past, just past the manhole cover... a sci-fi fantasy, of course...
