The Light Weaving


Black

Tune:  Liandrin
Meter: 4
Title: Episodic Sieve  

Trans, trans. Did you understand? 
Why else call a green into battle. 
Her guy called "you lieth", 
the rage circumfrieth, 
Bibbidi - Bobbidi - Weave. 


Green

Tune: Armor         
Meter: 5                  
Title: The Saddle

Yellow blue white? 
Did I get that quite right? 
Pedantic as ever I see. 
That's not who I am
its pain that we stan?
Move on. Too crowded for Me. 


Yellow

Tune: Nynave
Meter: 6
Title: The Ways

Swim the river, 
break away
Heads down, thumbs up,
Weigh the Leaf. 

White

Tune: Logain
Meter: 7
Title: The Blight

Get your mirror Pietre, 
Show what is there.
Is it pain? Is it Suffering? 
Is it a purposeful stare? 
Pietre I stan you, 
this was not my wish. 
I see not what I am
but what I shall bear. 


Blue

Tune: Cecily
Meter: 8
Title: The Wheelchair     

Peace, Sister, take your Time
the Placard is mine to hold.
yet the meeting is mine.
One wheel at a time. 
And yet, how many are counting.

Tune: Egwene Meter: 12 Title:  Ageless Annie Mae At 12:00 is Annie Mae's nap, Sheet pulled over, cheeks to pat. At half past noon, it's time to zoom. Tico, her man, on standby again. At 1:00, banana and egg, At two, ooh, don't bite me boo. Then at three, playtime with me, We sing our songs and kiss along Four of course it's spray and sheet, Hydration... Such a feat! Dinner time, legumes and attack!  Scuze me honey? You want wanted a whattie?  Well early to bed and early to rise,  These rings! those golden eyes.  Interpretations:  The poem is a commentary on the show. It is as fictional as the show in that we only have inference to Valda’s view of catching the Amyrlin Seat. It switches perspectives amongst him, Egwene, and Perrin. I wrote about my attempts to bond with my new parrot Annie Mae as foreshadowing for Valda fantasizing the reverse - breaking the victim and her bonded warder. In poetry the opposites are meant to be poignant symbols. It begin...

Tune: Jack and Jana                                 Meter: 1-9-.360 The Heroine and the Crown  A long, long, time ago, I can barely remember, A baby, pushing in a VHS™. Well, I rocked the second on my lap, saw him as straight from heaven.  And The Doctor, well, maybe He agreed.  Next tried to leave my marriage, Then decided on a baby carriage.  So many big decisions all around.  Now I'm starting to remember, Dreamed him in a Boxy Mirror; Cast a spell and, make no mistake  My bird popped on out and coached player 1 thru   every sport in town. So, who is it that needs savin'?  iPad down, no misbehavin'.  Wave the wand you'll hear that harpie sigh! The day, my Luna cried. So! High! Mr. Moon landing guy.  Plucked her marrow with an arrow Shyly batted those eyes Just kiss your wife and let a pineapple die- Swearing this'll be the night we stand by! This'...
