Riding a Kelpie

     I don't know about you, but it's what I do everyweekend ;)

VIII.

Riding a feral kelpie is not foolish as seems

Copper eyes and fiery breath

Should she tempt you with no fear of tooth or sky

Mastery is not the destination

Taming the beast not the goal

Wild rivers run sideways

Stars turn upside down and float

 

Don’t wear your thickest armor

Abandon your deepest fears

The kelpie isn’t here to point and laugh

Although she might if provoked

It’s really just self defense

If you fail your quest don’t fear

Run till the moon turns to sun

And the water a lost memory

     This is the next poem I'll be illustrating, either for 4 x 6 prints or as part of a zine, we'll see. I'm going to find a way to upload pictures again tomorrow or Thursday, as my procrastination over the weekend has resulted in really too much work to finish today... I'm also working on two more portraits like my Jessamine that I did over the summer. Enough to keep me busy this week.

     Class soon, Bree out
