Ink Blots

Ink blots on the edge of my mind
In the darkness what can you find?
A butterfly, a bat, a castle, a cat?
Perhaps its lovers embracing.
Those ebony stains, wrack my brains
Sinking into whiteness blinding
Do demons hide in gaping caves
Or ghosts haunting shallow graves?
A candle, a star, a basement, a car
Perhaps its paper angels soaring
Examine the sane, examine the brain
But to me it looks like Dalmatians barking.

All poetry is a rorshack test. No matter how simplistic it may seem at first glance. There's always more than one interpretation, and that's what makes it such a great form of expression. Nice work. I like the subtle rhythm and rhyme.
