Hostly Poems | Examples


Angels: Aliens

Ancient ones beacon from a lonely mesa
neither flesh nor spirit, yet hauntingly beautiful
Ghostly sky messengers; oracle of the Hopi
Eyeless Kachinas, carved in their image
Lore faithfully passed to each generation
Star people visited us from the heavens

H aunting continues within the dilapidated old house on the hill

    A  long winding tree lined path may be followed to it's entrance

    U ntil last season the house lay quiet and still

    N ow one can see strange lights and hear faint voices coming from the manor

    T omorrow is "All Hallow's Eve" and the town's children have decided to climb the hill
       following the treacherous path

    I  nnocence and curiosity go hand and hand within the young

    N o one was prepared for what waited for the children beyond the iron gates

    G hostly ghouls and goblins anxious to take their place!

Thy Say

Let give thanks to a beloved wisdom
The sea in the seeds in our gardens
           ~~~~~~~~~

Let embrace words from the brains.
          ~~~~~~~~~

The law that officiates his piece is falling
Day by day
Like a bridge failing its lane.
          ~~~~~~~~~

Eyes said there would be wind 
In weeds not of sands
And out of the cold and frosting storm.
           ~~~~~~~~~

Would there be rain in a barren sky?
           ~~~~~~~~~

Mouths said and boast hostly
About their cargoes,
Stadias... and flights.

Won't the mountain stop them
From bowing their shrouded shoulder?
           ~~~~~~~~~

Let there be Light in here.
