O'er The Darkside Of The Hemispheres...

Rating: 5.0


Dotage, pervades upon th' ashen grey -
silent whisps...of an old rankled Brain.
Hemispheric's universe sore estranged,
obstruction, occlusion, neurologic stain
like leaves besmirched by driving rain,
waning, draining, consumed by bereft;
so cold... so cruel... is their final breath-
until mercy comes in th' form of Death,
the passage of Death, the presence of Death
'til the passing o'er doth conjure new breath.

This is wonderfully drafted death poem shared here. Time of death gives amazing feeling. Passage of death determines presence of death and presence of death determines passage. Amazing! ..10
