Exceptional Breaking Out Animated Stills : Possessed by Treischel

Possessed In deep dark forest Horrors dwell Wild beasts, cruel traps, or far, far worse. Danger lurks in every hidden knell Where even trees have the Devil's curse From rotted trunks tendrils immerse Roots that probe the Earth's very shell Deeply, to the very Gates of Hell For angry demons to gain traverse AH HA HA HA Ha Haaaaaaaaa! Author Notes Faces emerge This is a photograph I took on Harriet Island near St. Paul, Mn. It struck me as having a dozen evil, smirking faces coming out of the trunk, as if it was possessed. The demons were trying to break free. It inspired me to write this poem. Animated stills are poems where inanimate objects take on human, animal, or spirit forms, traits, or articles. They are derived from Photographs I have taken, that have moved me to write a poem associated with it.
