Beetling Effigy

poem by: Dan Miltz
Written on Mar 05, 2017

In Mexican Isla de las Muñecas 
Spirits are a sway
Into sobbing island, midway
Green terrain, outstay
Hanging dolls, clanging
On mantled, sky high, racking
Most shockingly, unearthly
Ghastly hairy, extremely, scary
Their eyeballs, dim, frozen still  
Covered in destroyed, limbs and frill
Strung up in the air, overhanging
In creepy, ghostlike, swaying

Scary stuff, but nothing like a good scare to fire the imagination. Well penned.
