Analysis of Dream-Weavers



There are people
who
 I love to hate
that live inside my heart

They thread me
 in
then knot me up
new patterns in the dark

To make my world
a
thicker braid
than those who fawn and swoon

And stitch the flame
 of
tangled fire
—unwoven in my loom

(Ronald McDonald House: August, 2021)
