broken bells on a busted horse

a poem by Gwevera Nightingale

she rode my ride and played for keeps

though left unsaid, it rose like yeast
blared in sunlight: shadow's truth
Nepher broke her Dities tooth
her jealous waning gripped my hilt
my dreamer's dreams were dressed in guilt
brothers barked, their sisters sold
our soulful glowers from þe old
that middle had its rites in reigns
speaking truest brightened manes
girls and boys, these days, were all
except my lady at the ball
