THE WEAVE:
…Persephone speaks…
"The old man bikes
past me. He says,
"You look Bright,
like a free
Spirit," as he glides
a Way. Other
men pass me. Some
of them look scared,
to look me in
the eye, like I
might cut them down
for daring. In this
age, I understand.
Some women do.
Behind me, 3 men
walk, and talk
about how a woman
from their city was
beat up, in broad
dayLight, in the middle
of the street, and no One
stopped it. "Ain't nobody
care," they affirm,
back and forth,
"It could happen Here."
"I'm sure it do."
Fear. tHere is
Fear, creeping
like a vine around
the edges of most
beautiful things. tHere
will alWays be someOne
who wants to strangle
an image they admire.
I will die, someDay,
somehow. I could make
mySelves Dusty, but
the world is Dark enough,
that even Dusty glows.
"You look Bright,
like a free
Spirit." And I wonder
if I am, as I
walk, only noticing
the men, in my
hyper-vigilance."
