Tainted By Ghastly Memory

life expires without signs... his ghost's remnants mirroring lesions of her mournful gaze, tears pour out with unexpected lament: scoundrel of hours raking breath, her nights lost. Broken Wings' Contest: Dust Off A Memory 10/25/2017

Great form Nette. A wonderful use of words, as always but, this, I must say presents a conundrum for me. It appears to be a sad poem about a lost loved one but through your word choices it also seems to be about some one who had very mixed feelings about the deceased, perhaps about a mother and daughter viewing the death of their husband/father. You made me think.

This is very real and has memories of my own mother's death. Well written imagery. Best wishes for the contest.
