flux: a spell of acid

What body accepts endlessly? In eight ebbing movementsthe number of her birth and nameSu Zis spell of acid is a little wound of ink in a vast sea where memories, membranes, and insecticides meet.

Su Zi casts spells of acid from the ocean shore with the grace and caution of a spider walking on water.

i rise up
rise up to you
up into the decline of the day
when the River of the Americas
takes up her blue gray shroud
i see you hanging
voluptuously
in the smog smear
a vibrant round inferno,
a majesty in the vermillion decay.

Poet, Artist, Eco-Feminist, and Equestrian, Su Zi edits and handmakes the bi-annual publication Red Mare.
