Spectral Life

Read "Spectral Life" at The Eldritch Dark:

Although the subject matter of "Spectral Life" is a natural fit for the talents of Clark Ashton Smith (CAS), the poem itself lacks any particular spark of language or imagination.  It was unpublished in CAS' lifetime, and I suspect he recognized the limitations of this work himself.
