The Weavers Knot

The Weavers Knot

 

Despite the night tousled hair

twas still amber and gold

in the morning

worn long and held loose

in a weavers knot

 

Far too long to be modest

they said

and she had the way of a witch

about her….

 

Witches cats familiars and

friends

far too good to be just fucked

tho far too kind for her own good

a white witch maybe….

 

Then like a cat

without warning

she moved to an old leather chair

still warm from the touch

of some familiar or other…

 

and that is where she sat through dawn

with ancient quilt held tight

A single hand on view

seen only by her mirror

the other she imagined might

just be him

at least she hoped it might…

 

Despite the night tousled hair

Twas still amber and gold

In the morning

worn long and held loose

in a weavers knot

and she tasted of honey and sea….
