Sleeping in the hay of grief
with strands of straw within the teeth.
Gritting down
and foreboding so
unsure of which way to go.
Catch a reflection of the grief;
This isn't how it has to be!
Take the straw make use of it.
Create a headdress fit for a chief,
or wind it up around a broom
add your magic
and whisk up to the moon.
Whatever you would like to do
Just be aware that it is within you.
