To Fall in Love with a Wild Woman - Renee Davis

A man stumbles in the woods.

He is far from home.

He searches for the Sacred One, the Wild Woman.

The one who digs for bones,

the river beneath the river.

 

In a dark patch of woods

he sees her waiting.

He asks for her secrets,

he wants her magic.

 

She opens her mouth to speak

and out blasts her stabbing shrieks

her lightning madness.

The skies open with wild horses.

The man runs in horror.

 

The Wild Woman stays in the woods.

She keeps her secrets to herself.

But they keep asking for her secrets.

They keep wanting her magic.

 

And they still run in horror.
