High Tea for Werewolves



Both real and imaginary 

we navigate bodily change

on an emotional and psychological level,

it is too dark to read

what we ourselves may become.


So think before you speak.


In a cosy nook in the garden

my third eye is awakening

I make a cup of tea

I rub my nails a good deal.


The rest of the world is missing out

as I dress my family like werewolves.
