Gemini Rising

For my sister

I should have known
You would erupt from that bitter
Tomb, you couldn’t be
trapped.

She couldn’t pin you
incise you on hate
Her rage would shatter against
strength.

Years I have wondered
How to ward
My failure my rage
I should have trusted you better.

You took poison
and wove silk,
Your laughter rides
Aloft.

I see you ride
diamonds dripping from pen
Eyes aglow, you’ve
Won.
