Hollow Knight Poetry: Volume I

Summary:

A collection of poetry based on the areas of Hollow Knight.

Chapter 1: Dirtmouth

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

Dirtmouth

Husks of homes huddle together

to shield themselves from the wind

 

Dust is dragged over rock and stone

with no gentle place to rest

 

A shadow of life whispers to itself

lonesome memories of a nobler time

 

Desperation erodes to despair

reminding us of our fate of dust

 

It rests upon an ancient corpse

whose stomach is swollen with disease

 

Dirtmouth is an empty town

full of only ghosts now

Notes:

This is something I will be updating sporadically as I make my way through Hollow Knight. Poetry is one of my hobbies that I don't tend to share with others, so this is me trying something new. I hope that you enjoy my poetry and that you have a lovely week <3
