poem from 11.6

You are not real, said a voice.
The phantoms flee
gibbering like ghosts.

Tinkerbell Naassene priestess,
ghosts flock across her manifest hand
that holds my hand

to her sloping Ganges
that boils them from me.
Forms from my sister’s spell.

That washes form
through to else.
Hand, yes, 
in the heavenly river

clutching a rung
clutching itself

and then the next.
