Stone Woman - Bernadette Gabay Dyer
Love Spell
Fearing the sound of your
Retreating footsteps,
I have tied your secret name
Into seventeen knots in string,
Each to bind your heart
With a blessing,
So that goodbyes will not
Trigger sorrowful echoes in the hall,
Echoes to outrun dreams
Like wild birds in flight
Awakening swarms of moths
That swoop from under night’s hill,
To thrill against the needle
I placed through the red candlewick
That now glows in agonizing flames
To pierce
Your heart.
Kitchen Solitaire
I will not find you
In that house on Delaware
For its doors are barred and windows bolstered
Against intruders and the cold,
It is a lonely place now,
Drafts seep and sigh along the hardwood floors
And the kitchen where I once marveled at your practiced hands
Creating cuisines savory and spicy
Has become a place of solitude.
Tiles are curled and paint blistered,
Herbs abandoned hang from rafters on the ceiling,
Only silence lives there.
Blackened kettles and crusted pots
Wait in dank humidity
In corners where once I
