~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ icicles, thick, dangerous, and pointed daggers hang over burdened eaves waiting for their prey

Oh the dark imagery in this is beyond impressive and impeccable! I absolutely love the way youv woven words. Its so deep and intriguing and soul hitting. Cold hearted individuals like narcissists too wait for their prey, in their throne of ice, where they have no sun in their sky. But darkness within and all around to serve and drag others into too. Pleasure reading your work always dear sara! Loved this. Sending you light always .

thank you, Ink, for seeing the 'other' side of this wintry poem. I thought your comments (narcissists too wait for their prey in their throne of ice) was spot on. Grateful you made the connection. Hope you have a pleasant Tuesday, hugs Sara

This kimo gives a warning. It is very enjoyable, but gives a few shivers.
