A New Casting Call

Posted in tercet by maggie on 2018/05/30

In blood, with inviolable fasting
we recall our common bound casting
on the bed of our lady youngest

to renew as the moon in her waking
our breath, its word here remaking
secret water circles among us.

Afterthought 1423—Raw

Posted in tercet by maggie on 2016/11/23

Love quit us. Done. Cold through.
I reach for you.
You're with another someone new.

Given up on. Abandoned. Left behind.
I hurt for you.
You're with another someone your kind.

What sacrifices get made for security!
I crash for you.
You're with another someone for free.
