Feeble Dug By Starving Bony Hands Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Feeble Dug By Starving Bony Hands

Rating: 5.0


haunting image
of a small tiny
shallow hole
in dug ground

just big enough
to hold naked
body of a dead
baby but a few

months old
feeble dug
by starving
bony hands

of loving
mother
starving
to death

is among
the most
painful
images

my

inner
mind
often
shows

stunning strong images, a slap to the face of apathy!
