POEM 378: "Twa Corbies" by Kyla Houbolt (@luaz.bsky.social)
"Two crows diverged
whose flights were tracked
in a yellow wood
by crow the third
who watched the horse
that lay quite still."

"O give me the just before
an about-to-be rain, a little
psalm to hold & pocket, small
pine of beautiful ruin to come."

POEM 376: "Black Tea" by Cindy Kurukaanga (@kakapowhakatoi.bsky.social)
"She traces branches across
the back of hands that dug abundance
into broody marl, charged earth
with buddings, nursed slips to full plumage."
POEM 375: "The Unworn" by Aardhra Chandran (@aardhramc.bsky.social)
"The pleats are iron teeth.
They close around her hips.
Six yards of starched cotton
draw her upright—
a coffin of cloth,
stiff with hair oil,
sour with old sweat."

alive, alive
they shout to anyone
who listens"
