The Worthy Soul

c/originalpoetryby

SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com a month ago

Started this when I read a short story by Borges where I loved the line, 'he was seeking a soul worthy of taking its place in the universe'. Now this poem does not build upon any of the ideas of said story but borrows a beautiful line which I'll credit both Borges and the translator (I forgot who) for.

Hanged Man

c/originalpoetryby

SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com a month ago

Between two trees, he sways— one root in the earth, one reaching sky, bound by a thread of light to the quiet pull of space. His head tips down, but his eyes turn inward, searching the seams of shadow for a crack, a tremor, a way out of the silence.
