Mastodawn

It does not live where I am composed.
Not in the careful sentences, not in the tempered speech.
It lives in the far hemisphere,
in a body I will never touch—
a gangly theropod, disproportionate, wind-bothered,
lifting its unfinished wings
as if the sky had already agreed to it.
The gesture—
unlicensed, uncorrected,
with something in me answering it,
without restraint,
without shame—
unabashed.

Scrupleless without conscience
violence is practiced openly
yet nudity we must hide

#Airisu: The Crow and the Witch

Dōken-sha (Airisu POV) Post 20
#Wss366 helm #MastoPrompt Unabashed #TimeTravelAuthors Whatever #Edo

Sumika’s fingers touched Arakawa's. It was the slow motion of someone half-asleep. Arakawa-sama, Owl-sama, had ensorcelled her.

In a moment of insanity, I plunged my beak into Sumika’s neck, screaming:

          Grain in hand
          Snare in the other
          A gilded bridle

Sumika’s hand jerked back as red and indigo sparks spat from the sacred #helm. Arakawa-sama’s leveled his fan at me, snapping it open. But something stayed his wrath, and he finished my renga instead:

          Crow at dawn
          The rooster struts
          Stew pot awaits

I didn’t need to analyze that verse. The threat was clear.

An unsustainable silence of suspense fell. #Unabashed, I stared back at his blazing eyes.

I wondered, though, why I wasn’t feathers scattered on the shrine’s floor.

Colonizers worship in buildings. I worship, surrounded by trees older than my ancestors, in outdoor spaces without any doors or walls.
