You ride the holy horses

My prose poem "Mari Mild" is now online at Through the Gate. It was written in April for [livejournal.com profile] ashlyme, [livejournal.com profile] strange_selkie, and the Mari Lwyd. The rest of the issue is amazing: loss, leaving, writing, remembrance. I am very glad to read it this morning before I move.

The mattress goes this afternoon, and the laptop, and the four books I've been reading these last few nights, and the last pictures and boxes of extraneous things. And then I am out of this apartment, where I moved after such headaches in March. I do not regret it.

September will be a month of limbo. I do not regret it, either.

And it's wonderful, and still makes me happy. Thank you. Good luck.

ETA: Selkie and I were talking on this subject last night. I suddenly had an image of a Mari-carousel, and I don't know if it should be drawn or written.
