WHAT'S THIS?

Having been immersed in memoir writing for many months, I decided to write a small poem every day for a year to keep my poetic hand in. I've posted them to Instagram and facebook as written – where, to my amazement, people love them – but on this blog they are sometimes subject to later rewriting.

Today I'm inspired ...


Today I’m inspired to place around my neck

an amulet connecting me to Maat,

Goddess of harmony, balance and truth.


A great magician, my friend, 

decades ago did special work 

to embed in a trinket this purpose: a gift to me.


Lately I’ve been more focused 

on protective Bast, who looks after cats 

and those who care for cats. But now, perhaps 

it may be time to create more order in my unruly life.
