Who is this "man in black"?


Poem Artwork

Motionless evening so quiet no light
Undisturbed headstones stand still
Flowers bent wilted in vases set right
Look blood red moon if you will

Mausoleum with its iron gates tell
Speak to the ferns by the door
Souls share the misery of life in hell
Softly scream but heard no more

Graves of the innocents angels protect
From ghouls and grave robber's pick
Man in black tends to his special select
Bloods on his lips still to lick

Drawn to this place by his voice secretly
Never more wanting to leave
My spirit floats as my fam'ly I see
Yes, they have come here to grieve

(Typo on spirit) A non-sentimental meditation on the life of death. Many start, yet comforting images. Well done.

Besides soulful and sad, I'll add eerie and mysterious.

That man in black....
Could it be the grim reaper,
and you're gone in a flash.
But I'm holding out hope,
it's the return of Johnny Cash.

Not sure I agree with Jerry on this one. Soulful yes, but a little sad somehow, and the "man in black" an ominous spirit indeed, as if he had the right to be there !

What a wonderful, soulful poem you have posted this morning, Jane. Unbelievably serene.
