Poets Media isolates the most poignant, powerful, and exquisitely composed verses and quotes in the universal poetry canon.
Bone Shivers
Curtains white as bone, swish lazily to a tune only they can hear. The moon’s watchful eye bores down on a small quiet house; It’s baneful, sadness reeks in waves to any brave enough to venture near. The word house may be too insufficient a word to use- shack is more accurate. One soulless night, a woman of late fifties, finds herself walking by this lonely house one sweltering summer’s eve. A woman of questionable morals, she indeed was, and with no home, family, or money to her name, she decides to sleep there for the evening.
