Two short poems tracing one woman's crossing of South Africa, west to east. A rainbird's call reaches her indoors while she works, unbidden - a sound she has heard before, decades ago in Pietermaritzburg, Roger beside her. She packs the last box for Durban already knowing her destination, not yet knowing the door has opened ahead of schedule, or that deception waits three days into the east, and hardship not far behind it. Newly arrived at a counter on the other side of the country, a goose and then a crow come to her door in turn - the goose holding a silence as an elder would, the crow reading the frame as though the whole distance she has travelled is already accounted for in its eye. Neither poem settles into comfort or warning alone. Each simply insists that something is being carried across, and that she is being watched while it arrives.

As the casket sank into the earth, a chilling scream pierced the air-sharp and raw, echoing my own past cries that had once gone unheard by those around me. I glanced at the mourners cloaked in sorrowful expressions; their feigned grief made me want to roll my eyes. Did they truly love this man? My gaze drifted to my mother-in-law, her glare like daggers aimed straight at my heart. I held her gaze defiantly; she could wait an eternity for tears that would never fall for her wretched son. If tears were to be shed, they would only be for myself-my own loss in this twisted charade. _______________ All copyrights reserved @HleWritings❤💙 Under no circumstances should this book be copied or taken without the permission of the Author herself .
