Solitude's Fist
by Lee Garrett → (All Poetry by Lee Garrett)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

Thoughts from the crucible...



In solitude's fist,
Pounded by obsidian dream,
Insolvant hope grows cold.
Dragged from an anvil of shadow,
I am quenched in crimson tides.

Regret has lodged
In the thin tissues of reason,
A wounded beast demanding
The mercy of Death.
But I have truth in the crucible.


Life is defiance,
a treasury of pain,
And like a phoenix,
I love the hotest flame,
a flickering door to something new
.
