by K. Violet * 2002
The old woman limps along the worn
trail, speckled with sleeping flowers,
her gnarled hand tight on her stick.
There is a secret burning just out of
reach, something she was supposed
to be doing, itching at her memory.

Damn feeble mind!

Perhaps it is in her journey that the
puzzle will be understood, scratched
out by her torn moccasins from
the undersurface of what seems
to be blocking the path of knowledge
she so desperately seeks this dawn.
