1/3 According to a Flemish folktale, bokkenrijders or buckriders, who were said to be thieves, ghosts, or sometimes even witches, and rode through the sky on the backs of goats in Flanders and the Netherlands, had stolen the Queen's laundry.

We have picked & stored. Saved seeds. Pea pods empty, beans topped & tailed. We have cleaned out the ash from the last fire & the chimney is swept. Summer clothes put away & socks on feet. We have taken pictures of flowers & filled books with autumn leaves. We are ready.

I’m Weeping Over Jane Goodall & the supermoon has started to deflate so I've missed that too and my coffee tastes more bitter than usual and I— proud of my abilities to drink it black as a raven’s wing— think perhaps I’ll add some sugar today to celebrate a life well lived

We don’t associate power with fragile beauty. We think of it as bluster and hard edge.Too many words used and things left broken. A flower pushes its way through and we notice, petals soon to be taken by the wind but here it is, in desolation. We fall to our knees.

You

red laughter with triangles, trills, triceratops. Bluebells drip from your eyes to my hands. I juggle them like irresponsible fruit. Each blink rearranges towns. Roads of light humming; we cross nowhere & everywhere. Joy folds the world in and out of itself.

Love’s first seed, is a windy impulse; love’s grown tree, bears the weight of mountains. On meeting you, I could fly to the moon; duty’s gravity, now holds me to your earth. Soaring hopes, of our wandering passions; have finally found, a place to land.
