Transformed

What was, is no more,
and yet it holds to
memory and mind,
struggling against the

closing shades, as if
determined to remain
intact, even as the
material evidence is

removed. Do all things
remain forever in their
energetic state? Eternal,
unable to be touched by

the purely physical, for
once created, they can
never be destroyed-
only transformed?

  1. Oh you do make the enjambment so well... just wish it was in a sonnet as the prompt said.

    1. Yes, I am in the process of moving house and up to my eyeballs in packing and completely missed the sonnet bit. I did post on the thread saying ignore my contribution as I had it wrong.

  3. I missed the advice to ignore your contribution, and glad I did. I enjoyed reading your non-sonnet.
