I think this is really cool, honestly I've tried reading it several times, I get all the way through, I don't remember what I read, but I want to read it again, and then say oh yeah whoa, everytime. The words are hypnotic. I'll hi-lite my favorite parts
Cords
Women spun their distaff tufts
to spindle-whorls cast down
whipped ‘round with song from tuft to thread
and thread to string to cord:
a woman’s life one skein
from when she learned to spin until
the shroud her daughters wove her. Until the shroud what? Wove her? I do love the internal rhyme on this line
Men spun plaited slings of cord
stones tucked in simple pockets These two lines just twist Sonics in a crazy way
from which each whipping cast
released a singing bullet shot
for rabbit, wolf or foeman
dead or downed by stinging stone
each shot a lifeline severed. Because how severed rhymes with wove her
And just like that I don't really know what I just read again, the words are awesome, I shall read it again!
