Cast adrift
No where to go
my hands grip
this piece of flotsam
can’t remember why
*
Piece of wracked ship
splintered debris
watery abyss
sucked into darkest
no one hears my cry
*
“welcome to the crypt”
a hollow grating sound
fingertip like cold
opens it’s doors
none knows where I lie
As a writer for the Pen of the Damned, I like to draw attention to the excellence of the writing that you will read by this dark, angst wrought group. Please check out the newest short story by Dan Dillard ,“Visions of the Reaper.” If you like dark, you will not be disappointed
I apologize to the photographer as I lost the information about the piece. If you know, please contact me so I can attribute properly.

Thank you for visiting Moondustwriter. One of the many exciting things I've had the honor of doing is writing with an E. African team that is developing elementary curriculum for African children. As a writer, it is a thrill to help children (on all continents) who want to learn.
I've been part of the blogging community for more than 10 years. Some old timers may remember the award winning (2011 Twitter Shorty ) blog community - One Stop Poetry. I was the co-producer of that fast growing blog community.
I am a published writer, poet, artist and photographer. I have written, as well as edited, for periodicals, radio, blogs and fellow writers.
There are many facets to this moon - thanks for stopping by.

thanks yes perhaps. This one is lost in many ways and yet was it his own foolishness that knocked him on the head or was it plotted

Creeps me out totally, Leslie. That is to say it is very powerful. Also, that I fear drowning. 😉
