Willow

I’m weaving a web
between wifehood and widowhood
ready for when what may be
comes to be

wood and water
warp and weft
I’ll drape it over the green willow tree

I’ll make a good ghost of myself
when what I would not
comes to be

when the time comes
for all our unravelling
under the green willow tree
