Blood Moon
by ravenblack
The reality behind the poem is sad but the poem is brilliant. Your moon analogy and metaphors are wonderful. The subtle and irregular rhyme is so apt for the hard-hitting truth you are telling. And 'a soul cough/ awash/ with blood' is indeed a scary and excellent ending. A great write.

Thanks for seeing this one as brilliant. Smoke defined as the dream of shadow popped in my head days before I wrote this. I did not know where to take it until I was sitting out, looking for the moon. And then the tinkering began. Thanks for the great review and for the six!
