Something in you is changed,
Something wild and right.
The part of you that is animal shines
Out wetly
In the dew tonight.
You howl
and drink the midnight sap,
held holy, up, in ancient laps
of ash and elm
and dewy realms
you rise and sink in cold and inky moon glow.
you call out in a voice that only Crow knows.
You unfold your head and dance,
entranced with your own shadows.
