Framed twixt thumbs and fingertips
in Earth shadow bloody red
torn from sky and placed on lips
eucharist now for the dead.

great job with this one, Viv. I recall her last contest, everyone won. So no fears for us, but if I were judging this and giving different placements. boy would it ever be difficult with entries like this one.
