Serpent's 
A page of destiny
torn from the anchor.
Weight translucent 
in the prisms of salt. 
The arc of spines
and the heave of breath.
Furrowed brows 
and bows of waves
crashing,
in a posthumous 
plea of anger.
Lost we take our
fate and burn from
the rope as it coils
like a snake ready
to take glory.
But hatches battened
and fear aside.
Terror and calm 
on a sea of Serpent's.
We win the day.
We loose the gold
from our hands but
we are richer and
fiercely determined 
in our gentle hearts.
Victoria Stokoe.

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.
