Kintsugi Blog Hop: Final Night

We bow, for my last new poem of the Kintsugi Poets Society Blog Hop...





Final Night

Darkness falls
as the world spins
across the universe
an organic cog
in a biological
machine
Stars and suns
sputter, spent
Darkness falls
like a thick curtain
on the inevitability


~


Come back tomorrow for the contest winners and an excerpt from Reflections of Poetry.


We say farewell for now, but see you soon over at:
The Kintsugi Poets Society

Kintsugi Blog Hop: Shades and Reflection

Time to reflect on this, Day Six of the blog hop...





Shades and Reflection

I looked into the heart
of the black night.
What did I find?
An image, distorted
in a gilded mirror.
An image desolate,
of me.

Kintsugi Blog Hop: Cimmerian

Time to submerge yourself in Day Five...



Cimmerian


In the stygian waters you descend
drowning, dying with every surge
far underneath, fighting to emerge
In the stygian waters you descend

Drowning, dying with every surge
of breath, lost to expanding tide
your nebulous, inky fate implied
drowning, dying with every surge

Of breath, lost to expanding tide
trapped with your voiceless screams
riding the swell of broken streams
of breath, lost to expanding tide

Trapped with your voiceless screams
Into the stygian waters you descend
Shut your eyes, persisting to pretend
Trapped with your voiceless screams

Into the stygian waters you descend
drowning, dying with every surge
far underneath, fighting to emerge
Into the stygian waters you descend




Now on to the main site for the Kintsugi Poets Society

Kintsugi Blog Hop: Insignificant

Welcome to Day Four, unfurl the sails...





Insignificant

A solitary tear passing
over his weathered skin
swallowed by opaque fog,
as sails catch the wind
with the shadow's moon

Kintsugi Blog Hop: Living in Shadows

Day Three of the Blog Hop...


Living in Shadows


enveloped in familiar darkness,
adrift in this absence of light

no hope

an emotional deprivation
shredded senses overload

on empty

negative contact, a void
black, bitter, indifferent


and alone

Welcome to the Kintsugi Poets Society Blog Hop!

Kintsugi Poets Society Blog Hop




Welcome to the blog hop for the launch of the Kintsugi Poets Society!

Where poets plumb the depths of the black and bleak to extract the shadowy beauty within. For the next week you will be treated to the somber side of poetry, sent on a journey into the lyrical, dusky mists to emerge on the other side of the enigmatic darkness...

...unchanged or transformed?
Only time will tell.

"Turning dark cracks & broken fragments into golden seams of poetry."


Our theme for this hop is: Darkness



Eventide

Night cascades, alive
Its shrouded obscurity
of sunless splendour
~


Join us for the next week in this veritable fest of poetry, as we, Kintsugi members, post our creative musings on our blogs and on the main site for the Kintsugi Poets Society: http://kintsugiart.wordpress.com/

And be sure to come back each day for a new poem from me, and head over to the Kintsugi Poets Society for details on all the other wonderful poets taking part.





And as an extra bonus in honour of the launch, I'm running a contest.
The prize is a free copy of Reflections of Poetry from Smashwords.
