Literature Text

wisps of willow wind whisper
across crystal mosaics,
a cryptic compulsion caressing
mites and motes, mice
masquerading idle in shaded corners,
masks like monsters cast aside
to watch fog dance

scragged stepladders
twiddle nervous;
feathers swish through the haze
settling heavy in a cage
too small for breathing

I am working with the wonderful MagicalJoey ; we worked on lesson one today and did a little free writing while we were at it, and this is what I came up with (we played with "ghosts" as a theme).

Her piece came out SO MUCH BETTER than mine; I am SO officially jealous--it's gorgeous and you need to read it if you haven't already.

Let’s follow spectrelight and veilfaced
In the wake of sosmallbox.
Let’s dress antighost
And go veilfaced
Towards sosmallbox
For one
Last
Look
One man carries sosmallbox past
Prayerseats and down the sadaisle
Towards the darkdoor.
Out in brightlight and moodskies
One sosmallbox
Placed perfectly in
Onesmallhole
Where onesmallboy
Will
Rest
Forever
