Fields (Alien 20)

High on moonshine
Ol' Jim staggers
Fields of cotton
Long neglected
Parted lovers
Beneath the bolls
He goes to her

Swarming flies
Corpus spoiling
Necklace rope
On crumbling breast
Black lips erased
White Teeth exposed
Brighter than sunshine

Brilliant work, Arley! You took me into a world that is still physically giving me shivers! Great use of words to get some vivid images across.

We all have our dark side, don't we, Scottish? Thanks!

Yeah, I could see that it could be interpreted in a controversial way, Mick, heh heh. Thanks for reading it!

This is a little controversial if you read it the way I do.... but I'll keep my interpretation to myself.... Nice work. Arley.

Your comment on mine made me wonder if I'm a bit too dark sometimes.... but no, you get it. Loved the piece.
