Canto de Espada

Song of the Sword

Her stance shifts to wield and pique as her thought slits the challenge to still.

Lengths and tendrils flare like strands of the Andes to siege and parry in a whirl of taunt.

Shoulders are one with her voice in a stop-motion slice to counter rebuke

where episiotomy in curve circumcises the rote in tone with birth outspoken… horizon gleams with song.
