Entrance of the Healing SeasonA Poem by Poe Reddmy summers
The water approached us like a jumped introvert
crying apologies at the volume of a dying bird. The backstabbing wife of silence, the curator of livid dreams. Open arms to catch our fractured bodies. The suffering of fresh roadkill, the pain of being overlooked. Tries in vain to quench our thirst. The feathers on the floor, the cold glass sky. He walks slow but we know what is written. Two small severed wings, the corpse in a jar. The season of death won't be forgiven in a hurry. When he finally comes.. I'm still frozen and we're in tears. He shines a light on every part of me that's vulnerable, forcing all the scars to heal.
