The Weaving of Two

- in response to the fiber art pieces of Jill Powers, A Blaze with Light & Red Essence






a blaze of red fiber


a broom scraping sky


skirted with leaf and pale scale


the top chopped teepee


its sap swells sweetly into bone


binds together feather and spore


shapes a basket crowned with stubble


the sunset scorches


the bird stitched night


drills my seed into white hot steel
