Dark Coal of Night

Sponsor's name: Nette Onclaud
Contest title:  VIBRATIONS FROM A VERSO Poetry Contest  Date: July 26, 2025




A sky like a pressed coal
Stars like embers
Shadows unforgiving
Absence of light
Dust-laden silent air
Faint warmth enters
The dark brushes the skin
Scream of the night!
