Yet another poem from my now unpublished out-of-print speculative poetry collection. This one, "Fairyland Fantasyku", wasn't previously published in a zine or anthology, although I believe I've been sharing various versions of it online for some time now. I rewrote it for the collection.
Fairyland Fantasyku
By Richard H. Fay
dishes clang
unfinished chores done
labouring brownie
cornstalks sway
ripe grain swiftly reaped
harvesting grogoch
pickaxe knocks
cave-in avoided
forewarning kobold
twirling gleam
toadstool ring illumed
cavorting fairy
hammer rings
single shoe mended
cobbling leprechaun
shadow darts
needed tools vanish
borrowing pixy
pleading cries
rover led astray
deceiving bogle
fogbank rolls
dank cloak spreads disease
corrupting Grey Man
hooves thunder
mortal rider drowned
murdering kelpie
