today's #sonnet draft, on the invention of barbed fishing spears. (apparently they found one recently from way earlier than 90,000 years ago, but of course the list i'm going from is certain to be affected by future discoveries.)

read poem
never understood
sees certain rainbows in the sky
but not the colours
in a flight of words
understands a pose
of random flowers
ignoring dying petals
as they fall
but words that breathe forever
she cannot hear
at all

some dimming day
each breath a ragged cloud
i will understand
not one creaking word
you say
though with a swoop of Horus'
piercing eye will see
your all and always love
remain
best, don't you think
we are long gone
by then
through dancing birds
and shadowed
painless trees

those bright but quite implausible
icy rings of number six
their herd of kids, numbed and bored
hitch a ride to play and tumble
through fluffy clouds on planet three
imagine our surprise
when that mother ship arrives
to call them home for tea

fragile steel facade -
insecurity corrodes;
outward-facing cage.

awaiting Her decision

on the stairs of escher's tower
climbing always one step closer
to their greed
ignore their siren songs
of wealth and power
walk along a level path
to feel the wounded forests

When one's satisfied
It's hard to look back
And wish to change anything
My trauma
The things that hurt
The things that numbed
Happened
But now we're here
Us three
Under the oaks
Nestled in snow
You let me be me
Sharing all I feel
No need to justify
The space I take
I'm wiser now
And we have our family
So no regrets
Just acceptance

in their stone house hollow
listening for the echo
of an absent winder
tick and steeple tock
in lock step
wailing
as though
in mourning for this single life
pulling all the hard stops out
on sundays

finally
brings oak
and
maple
