Gore

Lichens of lion's lore,

incipient and trying to score-

ditch it and die in the core,

stick it right in the horse.

Lore

Write of Then and When,
Not Now;
Allow
Tales of god-like men.

Songs of wandering
Not facts,
But acts
Of some fable king.

Sipping love's velvet
In orange yellow cracks..
Swept and red tale's tilting 
Through times, bronzed quills
Poetry seasons fables lore; vieta.

Who adores an ancient lore chore
And loves to see gore and wage war
Yet sore pouring pain?

A story of man’s evil core

Actions, fluid as air
Color, black as night
Eyes as bright as a full moons silver sea
Slinking throught the shadows
Untouched by time
An age old idol
In witch's lore

upheld in ancient lore,

Family Lore

My Irish grandma said:
that an injured Golden Eagle
had once landed in her potato field.
Grandpa ran up to it
and killed it with a pitchfork.

In those days, 
all first responders killed.

We seek a richer Metaphor,
     a paragon and quintessence
of intenser, more legendary lore:—
     pregnant in meaning and in present tense!
 
Aye! Give us, too, high suspense;
and a tale worth dying for.

Premium Member A Poet's Twilight Musings

In the moonless night a poet’s ink stains

Words cloaked in somber refrains

In the ink’s abyss shadowy tales unfold

Each dimly lit verse a soul’s secret told

In a poet’s cryptic lore the rest remains
