“WINTER'S GHOST:
Autumn moon
incautious in the dark river
Winter’s ghost walks
with a covered face
and silver bones wait in all animals
to be bone cloth upon her shoulder
wait for her happiness in that they are silver”
― Mystical Tides

“She wears it so beautifully doesn’t she, her pain… Always smiling, always positive…. always happy to help… It’s like a garment perfectly tailored to fit the way she carries it… with a touch of grace… and the quietness of that sad smile….
All so you’d never know how heavy it really was.”

“That window which connects you
to the agony of other people;
that’s your soul.
Close that window and you are soulless.
And a soulless man is vestigial.
He hears but cannot listen. He sees but cannot notice.
And everyone knows:
when eyes and ears become jobless,
We look for excuses.
We hear angels and devils speak. We confabulate.
We make up gods
and lick their feet.
—Superstitions”
