Old Oaken creeks in mind, I wander my woods alone Sound drew attention like some crinkled litter Not knowing what hides behind each leafless arm...beckon me further Rooted stumble as if to fall I know not where I go at all Mumbled rumors a sirens call, the seductive whisper

In a way this poem seems very abstract to me, left open for various interpretation.
I immediately thought about what I've learned about sirens in literature...how they are known to be seductive and very powerful for they could entice sailors and ultimately killed them as they were blindly mesmerized by their songs.

Mumbled rumors a sirens call, the seductive whisper I really like this line. Nice job.
