planting bones MAG
yesterday
she parted the soil
soft sepia granules invited
her ripe fingers
to lay her tribute of seeds
tenderly into the ground
today
I part the soil
soft sepia granules invite
my unripe fingers
to lay my tribute of her bones
tenderly into the ground
and wait for the bloom

I love the dark complexity of this. It takes a bold writer to be able to envelope such hidden tragedy into beauty.
