In Memoriam Anne Boleyn

Martyred May 19, 1536. I dedicate to her and to Erzebet today, my Hymn to Arachne, a poem published in my chapbook, Sappho, I should have Listened, 918studio, 2010: Hymn to Arachne Twisting, turning, taut and tense, Weft and woof and Hemp so dense, Ikat colors Hues hand-dyed Stories told from Days sublime. Weaver’s touch all Magick conjure Weave the colors Patterns under Cloak me now in Wool and silk, Woe to those Who wish bad ilk.
