Moirae

 

She is old as a turtle—she is dry as a spider—her shadow is long.
A woman with spindle and distaff just sitting on the bench in the riparian cottage, her back to the sunset. She, as though spinning the thread of life, determines its length and cuts it. Froth as a fine yarn is swaying away with the dark breeze…

I can't see the path—
in the dusk
buzzing of a spindle
