You Choose #poetry #death #dayofthedead

head stone

My fingers across stone

caress raised letters

your faded name 

all that was left of you

a chill ran down my spine

looking below

these arose in red

new embossed letters to…

I pondered

your bones so cold

I feared to see or hear

another

The embossed words:

Strike me once I bleed

Strike me twice I die

and thrice

you choose…

day of dead skull
