Letter of the Un-forgiven.

A study of those blind to faith and reason.

Slated stone crushed under a worn foot,

 walking lands as arcane to travelling new,

Poised plants sully the roads of old,

 doctors failed those praying on few.

Tattered houses align a single mile,

 discussions hushed and silence the young,

Broken memories kill the very heart,

 the old women with a woven and vinyl tongue.

A low rise hill holds the death of saints,

 women mourn and cry tears for all,

Pictured captured in scenes slackened,

 more hopes are needed to reach the tall.

Failed fears of children scream loose,

 bright stars have fallen on those men,

A door held open for and by the divine,

 Simple thoughts are key in time ten.

Author's Note

Read and re-read at your will, it is a new style and a new look at an old theme.

[Beautifully Tragic xPoe..]

I'm not sure, but I may have noticed some minor errors within the piece, but regardless I think I got the jist of this after a couple of reads. IMHO, I think their are more people way too open to faith and reason, and bring religiousness a little too far and insane...while others dont have enough. Not sure if I'm making sense, religion is a touchy subject but I thought this was a great write.

Quite dark, yet beautiful at the same time. Your use of imagery is stunning.
A good read for sure :)

I like it. It's different, but the different approach makes it read well.

Fitz you never failed to amaze me with your work. I had to turn off the tv, kick everyone out of the room, and read this 3 times to really feel it completely but it was well worth it.

[Gitana Deneff]

I enjoy your writing style very much.

[WaterColorPanda]

very interesting. you write the enigma well, though I'm left wondering what was going through your head as you wrote it.
