The ghastly death ring

Writing date
The seventh of tenth
Shift of three
Pervades me
A rubber stamp to relate
Twenty twenty-three

Prince of peace
death right precluded
Blood released
heartbeat ceased
Predictive programming sprees
from pores exuded

Sea to shore
the victims galore
bombs that slayed
infants strayed
Awareness to cut through minds
as enemy grinds

Look afar
through the eye that smarts
flattened stones
amidst groans
pictures that imprint on hearts
ugly that they are

Bloody spill
cloaks the sunken eyes
World’s attire
of the liar
no longer a white-clad skill
twixt the dying sighs

Angels sing
voices join clamours
of thousand
small hammers
of ribs protruding to end
the ghastly death ring

The strength in my moonlit stare

Frequencies
sounds of revival
whispering
like the trees
They blow within me
breath of survival

Fingers knit
future to befit
Goddess frame
Twirling dance
body moving in a trance
different yet the same

Sense to bare
my heaving chest’s bloom
cells to groom
with insight
The strength in my moonlit stare
shows recovered sight
