Fletched Poems | Examples


Premium MemberIf It's Poetry You Seek

If it's poetry that you tend to seek 
Then, write words down 
That you want to speak 
You can write about the birds and the bees 
Or write something you've beheld, if you please
 
But, just remember that the words that you've wrote
Will be looked at by others to note 
And for them to try to comprehend 
That the notes to them, you want to send 
Might be a little far fletched or remote
 
But, as a poet I think you should know 
The meanings of how your words flow 
You must also try to realize 
That's what seen by others eyes 
May be looked at like it's pure- status quo

Lilac’s Locus


Clouds in contrast,
as night fades...

Hidden in the shadow-dark, underfoot -
astride the windblown crinkle-leaf of
a season ago, a violaceous crocus begins to dream
of the end of the dream-
time
and the skybowl (soon!) of light.

Cut through the indigo,
a black-fletched line;
one single goose.

Now two.

Premium MemberNight Stalker

Within the forest’s dream of night’s true fright
shadows twist obsidian trees torment,
the cypress writhe in blood moon’s bright delight.

The hunter hides his nascent lust for might 
and so the doe flees by man’s bow unbent,  
within the forest’s dream of night’s true fright.
	
The cypress writhes in blood moon’s bright delight,
bedevil not the finer soul, repent,
the destined deed, must feed, man’s plight.

With deadly skill, fletched shaft sheers frosty night.
The horned hart does fall in wonderment, 		
within the forest’s dream of night’s true fright.

And torment flows in drops of crimson sight,
distorting right and light with man’s intent.
The cypress writhes in blood moon’s bright delight

Into the holy water blood rings light
for life is all and death is but dissent, 
within the forest’s dream of night’s true fright,
the cypress writhes in blood moon’s bright delight.
