Extreme Unction T B

when blood ebbs cold 
           and threshold past
             consoled at last

Thanks Christopher This is a pretty obscure form of poetry I read some of these “than bauks” on unseen seekers page, He/She is so good at abstract poetry, then the contest came along so I gave it a go, not as easy as it looks cheers David

I must admit or say David I myself would have to google or look up half of the formats of poetry you are able to write or perform . I dont even know what they are or have even heard of them . Love your work
