Grim Women

1.
~
the crows burden the trees
gather their iron grits
criticize one another
~
they slip through gaps
in the matrix
and are gone
~
their wings are bruises
on the afternoon
~
their wind is deliberate
and desperate
hardened to the goal
~
2.
~
in black
grim women
watch one-another
hide the key
beneath the doormat
and glide
towards the town
