Sometimes even the strongest have to take a break

THE WOMAN IN THE YELLOW SILK DRESS

In the glass tower
she sits,
a reflexion of flax
grown to maturity,
a golden
oriole stalked by crows
ready for the first sign
of faltering.

Only by force of will
she remains
to outlast predators
who, one-by-one,
relinquish
the death vigil.

She passes
into the topaz
sunset
as she flees,
finally able to relinquish
the gem of power
she
so unwillingly
wields.
