No Name Woman

Among the villagers,
clothes and good clothes.
They wore good clothes.

A woman combing her hair
hexes beginnings

Women looked like
great sea snails –
A bent back;
            Goddesses and Warriors

A marvelous freeing of beauty, lover
            she cursed     herself

Imminent lover,
looked at her
            looked.

They left, fearful
like a field of nesting birds,
startled and caught

Their first reason for
leaving,
            Final reason for
                        leaving

Was the never-said
