Something Wicked This Way Comes

written by: Anne G

@The InkTruth

Somber hues

of black and grey

Brush strokes

on an ink stained sky

Misshapen forms

thunder and rain

Angry clouds

frightening sounds

Raging winds

impending storm

Ominous landscape

dread and fear

Premonition

haunting thoughts

Something wicked

this way comes

Why write?
I write because I am:
Driven to distraction by the inequities of the society in which we live.
Motivated by cruelty, abuse, ignorance and indifference.
My intention: To poke, prod and provoke!
"Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess." - Oscar Wilde

Shadows of New York by Francisco Bravo Cabrera

One day I sat and listened to the choirs of Babel.
It took me back to when I painted shadows in New York
which cast skyscrapers high above your garden.
And I wondered if an island, in the seas of nowhere,
would have served as shelter if our ship should sink.

Did a siren with her song lead you so far away from home,
and has that made you forget me?
Have you removed the old tattoos?
Did you forget the sailing trips?
Was it because Manhattan’s winds destroyed your jib?...
