An Etheree poem based on an image prompt for the Dark Dreamscapes Poetry Contest.
April DDPC Round 29


Sail
the depths
of a dark
and deathly sea,
pulled by corpse sailors
dredged from the Undersea.
Across the bleak water’s thrall,
The ferryman transports us all.
Rich or poor, there is no need to pay;
the ride is free, but it’s only one way.
