Magpie Tales 208...Stones

 Poet's Sleep, 1989, by Chang Houg Ahn

                                                               Wandering in the empty

                                                                  dark of lost thoughts

                                                               Bleached bones echo

                                                                  with demented glee

                                                               Words fall like hard

                                                                  and bitter stones

                                                               As the poet roams a labyrinth

                                                                  of discarded dreams

Magpie Tales 208...I don't know why the prompt this week seemed so creepy to me.  Must be the skulls lurking outside the window.
