Her Soul

Inspired by a story I've been writing.



Her soul she sold
for a black magic bean
a black tree grew
within an hour or two

Creeping bent spreading
torment with its vile scent
many were employed yet it
could not be destroyed

Nothing could fill
the hole left by her
soul

Her killing tree
will only cease to be
if her soul return's to she

Andy, fable and lore fill this plot 'til it's a boiling pot -- as dark as licorice and roofing tar -- a whale of a tale in verse that is surely terse -- peace and love my friend -- Jon Michael

Like a dark version of Jack's Beanstalk, 'cept the nightmare never stops. You're so good at this type of compression - a whole story in 14 concise, short lines. I find the mythical style and archaic language suits this narrative, though the subject matter DOES seem also very contemporary. Only YOU could try to get away with the syntax of the last line! :)) xx
