Mold
From the clay the creature comes,
Cloys to minds, to hearts once pierced
By persecution.
Truth began the breath of being
Till time itself starts distorting; reaching
sludging sprawling Golem gaining strength:
Soulless substance searching kin
Golem festering into the stench of sin.
1999 Poetry Society of South Carolina: Carruthers Contest
