My newest poem in the style of Lovecraft. Not my usual style, something I am exploring.

Triage



Quest for lightening

In the darkest eyes

Arrows quiver, quivering rise.



Guessed the answer

In tender lies

Cast out truth the heart denies



Notch the arrow

Let it fly

In the darkest hours even lightning dies.
