raise from the past
the very dead
and the gone
bake them from clay
craft them from bone
put them on display
I want to see them dance
like the shadows
beside a fire
like the lightning
in your hands
the very dead
and the gone
bake them from clay
craft them from bone
put them on display
I want to see them dance
like the shadows
beside a fire
like the lightning
in your hands

Damn!
This is great!
I am going to have a hard time in this contest, I can tell
A lot of good good entries and this one is certainly there with them...
One suggestion..
bake them from clay
craft them from bonethis one word change to me pulled this stanza together
and coheised it.
Of course it is your poem and your call.
Nicely done and I love that title.
