Black Butterfly
Charles Simic

Ghost ship of my life,
Weighted down by coffins
Sailing out
On the evening tide

    Just found your blog today. Feels like a blessing! Thank you for posting these beautiful poems. They are so fucking rare and priceless. This totally made my day!

    • Thank you so much. I often feel like I am posting poems into some empty abyss where no one sees them and think about stopping. But then I remember that I love poems so much that I can’t stop, and comments like yours give me the energy and inspiration to continue. Thank you for reading and for reaching out.
