blind to the ragged rain
a wavering candle hidden beneath a cape
ghosts call for blood
as he runs to the foot of the hill
arms akimbo blind to everything other than to escape
a mission impossible to achieve

If only it was. But it isn't. Conquering them is the only way through. Beautifully penned. :)
That is very clever to produce such a poem from little more than the 12 wordle words. Bravo.
Compact, but creative!
This has a cool spooky feeling to it.....the ghost, the wavering candle.......well done.
We have to face our fears...and then they go away..~ cool game of words!

Run and the fears will catch up, but face them and they may well dissolve. Always good advice and penned so beautifully and succinctly here.
I loved what you did with the prompt---I would love it if it were as easy to work through my fears--
run away from inner fears... nicely put!
Interesting take..full of enigma

The last line is beauty in itself..wonderful piece
