hello beautiful Eerie this makes me think of myself
I wonder if it's how you feel about yourself
or a genuine observation of someone else...

a very hauntingly beautiful and sage write...

Hi Brenda! It is how I see myself. Glad to know I’m in good company. Thank you for the gracious comment and RL add.

Is dark wisdom a thing, Like probably djinns supposedly possessed a dark wisdom sprinkled with trickery. The witches of Macbeth possessed a dark wisdom. This piece suggest the knowledge of a dark wisdom, regardless of the outcome. You have a different darkness Sis, but we both share a taste for it.  

I know you understand. It makes me feel less alone in the darkness. A lot of times I am pulled in two different directions and wish I could just find peace, one way or the other. I need to commit maybe? I don’t know…
Love ya, brother.

Absolutely no words, just going to take this with me and reread again

Aw thanks, Particles. I’m glad you liked this one.

Otherwordly beautiful...

Thanks, Cipher!

This reminds me of a supernatural experience I had when I was a teenager. I was about fourteen years old at the time and had been practicing Druidry for the whole of that year. There was this pond in the middle of town, with a very old cemetery that ran along one part of it and a big park just up past the cemetery. I remember upon this one occasion I went to the park and then to the water's edge from the park's side, deep in the woods... where the forest just met the pond's waters. There, I invoked the ancient Irish Celtic goddess Danu and I then begged her to appear and bestow her blessings upon me. I did not expect a literal appearance! For like I expected just to sense something unseen. But then, out of the water emerged this woman-like form that had green skin and long tendrils of snake-like hair. And I fell to my feet and knelt before her immediately! She told me that she had come to bless me and that I was on the right path for me at the time. I thanked her, then she went back into the water and disappeared. But I noticed that hours had passed in that time, and it was suddenly late afternoon, so I went home after that. This poem brings back a bit of the memory of that experience (and several others like it that I had) to me and reminds me of the dark mystery of certain otherworldly things. Great power in your words! Thank you for sharing them.

It's a haunting and intriguing write, filled with mystery and visceral image.
Nicely done.
