Shapeshifter
Words tumble down to her feet
The waters gather
Fluid reflections of untitled biographies float down stream
She is writing the days
Events come to pass
Foretold by the bruha
Cards of fortune
Offer painted illustrations of her womb
She is the birthing
Awakened by a single cry of her organic wisdom
She travels exhausted by the in and out
Carrying cauldrons of her tell tales signs
She stirs the brew
Bubbling surfaces show her magic
She learns the dances
Footwork of fancy
She dreams of freedom
Closing the door
Behind her
Red boudoir glass icicles dangle from her eyelids
Opening her mind to kaleidoscopes
Of sensory vision
She unfurls her hair
Sweeping through the changes
She is tall
The crone calls beaconing
Walking stick speaks
Flower petals shattered
Dried bouquets Fragrant
Wisps of gray
Matter of facts
Falter under the weight of her knowing
Forming tiny fragments of her soul scape
A map of the road to flames of effigies burning in the night
her former self
Left on yesterday’s doorstep
Fleeing the welcome of goodbyes
She is alive
You and I
She becomes
Every changing in her majesty
Queen of all movement
Shaping her shift
To an endless becoming
