NaPoWriMo - 2017 - 24. April 24 : Realm of a Spirit

Prompt : Simic Epigraph Prompt
The prompt is to use a Simic line as a diving board from which to spring into your own new poem.

Realm of a Spirit

I left parts of myself everywhere
The way absent-minded people leave
Gloves and umbrellas.

Hands and legs for forebearers
The way they get support to stand from
Walking sticks and stands.

Shoulders for kinfolks, for mates
To hold on to and, sometimes, to let go; as
For coffers and kleenex.

Brain for the psychos
To invade and molest; as
For blinds and ties and cursed objects.

Heart for the butcher

Who have the taste for slaught and sell
Behalf of meet for treat.

Blood for the vampires
Who suck out the state of being alive
Behalf of the treasures hold.

A big thanks to Val for helping me by providing me the prompts. Hearty thanks to all for spending your precious time for reading my poetry and don't forget to reviewing for my poems. Undoubtedly all mistakes are mine.
~Emi.

Well done. Bravo.

 

Oh! Those were not my words Sas. According to the prompt, I took those lines as a jump start for the poem. And I extracted those words from the prompt that was provided by Val. So I don't know who is the accurate guy who deserves the compliments. Thanks for reading and reviewing...
