Welkin water weeps,
Washing walls
Wearing wild whitlow-wort wreaths
Weather-wrecked, warped walls
Weakened, wobbly waypoint walls
Where wayward wanderers wallow within
Wearily wishing
Weeping water
would wash ‘way
wrongdoings

B. A. Durham’s False Memories blends dream and reality in a seamless mix. As his father, afflicted by Alzheimer’s, fades away, the narrator is haunted by a dream that may be a memory, returning to him insistently. The piece is full of wonderful detail (the father touching his lip where once there was a mustache, “but now he is clean-shaven—he has been for years” — and moving in revealing the complexities of a family’s life. A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.

Amazing! Each line carried so much weight. Beautiful job!
Wow!
You have a wonderful sense of flow and pace, andmake exquisite word choices! so sparse but every single damn word earns its place! Bravo, Morgana!
I loved the sounds in each line and how they transitioned so seamlessly, creating this lovely, melancholy story. Gorgeous :)
What I like about your entry is that it has a story, many are just words placed together. Well done
