Maria, when my imagination kicks in, I just follow and see where it takes me. You might like the crone's back story better. I call her Cora.

Oh boy, that was gloomy, doomy and ghastly ghostly, but very elegantly expressed in this poem. I am old enough to be a crone, but I have much more fun planned for my "ghost" days than that darkness of nothing the poem suggested. Love, Maria

You could do a short story about her too. I wanted to know more about her.

Interesting suggestion. Thanks Joan🙏

Since the crone is a figment of my imagination, I'm already thinking of her back story….

The image is muy buena too, and very appropriate.

Oh my! This is scary and I shouldn't have read it at 1 am but I am still working. Good night, dear Frederick! It was great!
