This Samhain

this Samhain
I tell you I will be called by
my proper name
you will see the fire burning
bright in my core
and flee or fight
to keep it sacred
and together we will bury
the dead words
give birth to pale virgin truths
intone a truce
in the name of the shadows
we have ignored
all crevices explored and made holy
a new water
a new flood
a new mud to arise from
sanctified and solid.
