Silken
Trap threads spun in
The darkness of the night;
Death-bound symmetry, breakfast is
The prize.

Fateful Darkness
Out of blackness in the dark
Two bright torches shine
Your yellow eyes
A splendid work of art
As much as I’d like to
Stroke your fluffy coat
I can’t let you in
You black fiend
You’d tear to pieces
My little bird
My only pet
My only friend
So sorry, but now
You do understand
I must bid you
Good night!
Go do your bloody business
Stalking little critters
In the fateful darkness
To your heart’s delight!

My beloved mother passed away peacefully on this day last year. This poster was created by Ag Nes, my talented friend, a few days ago when she saw my poem and photo on Facebook. I’m forever grateful to her for her generosity. When I asked her what I could do for her in appreciation of her kindness, she replied: “Irina, just enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.”
