Book of Gone vi

A Poem by C Peril
"

vi

"
This gift of a scar,
this earthly woe that
has been my inheritance 
I shall not squander this
to the winds 

I shall not let it pass, as
lightning crackles 
through the night 

I will cherish the humble
hell cast upon me, so
that - in your name - 
I can hold the hands
of those the same 

Equally afflicted 

We will find hope,
carrying our neighbour's
chains
