litha

unbreathable june

faded honey moon

reliable sun too close

salty, aluminum air

athame reaches, draws

searches between the worlds

splitting sky at will

elements and elementals,

midsummer sylphs, trolls,

river sprites,

dragons, atlanteans welcome

the lord and lady,

Ra meets Gaia

in the tropic of cancer

in my backyard

in the speck

that is my soul

mistaken

do you

wring the stars

before litha?

your goddess

weeps

sirius tears

rain

astarte incarnate

banishes her

sabbat defiling

mortal unfortunate

casts  aside

not her horned one

just you
