Black Knight

George Hodan




Black Knight

At the crossroads where the crocus meets the
rose that has no thorns
At the crossroad where the birds part for the golden
owl with feathered horns
I shall meet you in the mud where the sun will never shine
In the blackened night around us I will take you there as mine
At the crossroads where you crawl on belly desperate to decide
I shall rise in fervor swirling - scissor to your thread - your lover Suicide

    That black knight is only too willing to lend a hand. Pity he doesn't take a little time in dissuasion but there, he has his job to do too, selfish lover that he is.

    nice lyrical bounce to the lines as well as repetition which drew me in to reading the poem. Dark and rich and good.
