"- Hush -"

In the
gathering of
silence - in the
mustering of the
dark; in every comforting
shadow hollow beats a heart,

Hollow
beats a heart
in every comforting
shadow, in the mustering
of the dark, in the gathering
of silence - hollow- beats- a heart.

Hello, Obi,
This is fantastic. Is this an Obi invented style, or have you seen it before? It is so unique and clever - very poetic choice of words. Great title, too.
Nice buggering about!

The least to say, in its language use and poetic technique like wise.
Love it

Brilliant use of words from the first verse to create a second verse.

I agree with a comment above, it feels as if it should continue and I definitely wanted more from this piece.
