The Grief that Grips Our World

Raquel Dionísio Abrantes

Silver waters whisper
amidst slender branches
where sisters bathe. My twin
of bone and moss whose woe
I fold like my grandmother folded
her husband’s pants —
carefully, and in silence. Come,
feral storm. Let us
be washed from the grief
that grips our world tonight.
