Notes About The Poem

Composing


Cemeteries as themes
    Certainty of  s a d  words
Crypts, tombs and vaults for sure
  Creaking gates  s q u e a k  and groan
Captive of the long dead
      Caressing ghosts that love
C O M E  into my abyss . . .

I'm with Jan on this one, it is typically you, has your signature style, which is so easily recognizable, and that's a good thing, should do well in contest.
