Willa’s Blanket
I call upon my
grandmothers blanket
Nimble fingers though practically bone
So much love
it burned a hole
in her womb
I know she rests
no harm can ever
reach her
I call upon the physical
Manifestation of Willa Stones love
The properties of which
would disintegrate under analysis
nonetheless
Read the rest of the poem Show less
highest possible quality
of ancestral protection
The power has grown since gifted
Perhaps we have yet to see its limit
Now we need to use her love to hold us now while we witness the dragon at the doorstep tearing down the frame work
coming for our hearts.
I tremble but I am brave
brave as she was
a little girl getting through
months long dust storms
when she knew her clock was slowing
in a compulsion to use up her yarn
she left me
the finest museum piece
hang it in the armory
after me
with the rest of the heavy shields

"I forget that people do not understand that another may read more into a piece when you are using metaphors and ambiguous language. I am sorry that we got off on the wrong foot. I will be more careful in the future to b…" -
