KNITBONE AT IMBOLC

The cast is off
This snake has shed its skin
And won’t be charmed back in

If a plaster cast could be a metaphor
For the past, I will remember
How rigidly it bound me

I cast a spell banishing
Then
Casting on, knitting
Now
Blasting off

Poem, written

Psithurism

whispering

washing whooshing

whistling flustering flistering

a shaking leaf sea

surrounds us in sound waves

wishing whispering

washing whooshing

rustling whistling flustering flistering

a shaking leaf sea

surrounds us in sound waves

breaking shore shingle

branches breeze-dancing

breaking shore shingle

branches breeze

dancing
