THE LIVING CREATURES RAN AND RETURNED

This is Temporary: 2 of 8

June 21st, 2024
Half Dome Diaries

You can ask to be shown,
opened unto a dimension,
swirling, sickening realm.
 
But, woe unto thee fleshly being,
dare ye enter that perilous gate
where monsters are summoned
and as easily swallowed
with the lick of some
greater apparition’s
tongue?
 
Brave it would ye?
 
The rapidity of flux
makes mad what once
was your personality,
but should your heart fail you
just return to your den,
       to your nest.
 
Did I not fashion you
       of earth?
