A witch’s hand with a million fingers,
Each with a million joints,
A million accusations
Accusing me
Accusing you,
Accuses all. Everything.
But between her rhytidome fingers
The soft embrace of red, yellow and cream
Calls out forgiveness,
Offering no consternation
And the accusations turn upwards to stir the sky.
