There Is A Darkness

A Dark Sedoka. Also My forty-seventh dark poem in the series inspired by Dharrsheena

By Mike Singleton - MikeydredPublished about a year ago 1 min read

This is my third attempt at a Sedoka (shadow poetry), a poetic form introduced to me by Loryne Andawey and you can read the definition here.

I also found a confirming article here

This is my forty-seventh dark poem in the series inspired by Dharrsheena.

The Sedoka Format is very short taking the form of a pair of katauta as a single poem, which can address the same subject from differing perspectives.

The music is "There Is A Darkness" by Bonnie "Prince" Billie

There Is A Darkness

And That Will Soon Take Your Soul

And Leave A Rotting Carcass

Your Flesh Will Be Stripped

You Are Blind In The Darkness

A Flayed Corpse On The Cold Slab
