By Caitlyn Kiefer Waves lapse against the crumbling cliff
Another sun pulled below the horizon Another day has been born then gone Watched from a house of stone Home of an isolated man Relying on meats and fur Assisted by his basset hound When the forest floors were shot bare Birds found other forests to nest The sea called for him to find another living His ship sailing off persisting towards storm Leaving the basset hound condemned to ground Forest reborn, starting with the shrubs Then come vines reclaiming the house The hunter gone brings squirrels along Rabbits return, then birds, followed by deer Life renewed to the forest on the shore Yet the hound still guards the porch Despite having gnawed it to bits Wondering what he did Unable to stop protruding ribs Every breath risking tear Sunken eyes watch the slithering horizon suck away another sun While awaiting his sailor from a sea that stopped storming long ago Another day born then lost Comments are closed.
