Altoid tin altar
She is the singer of storms
The whisperer of death...
It is she who utters the invitation to slow down and pay attention to the bones.
For it is only here, in death, that the promise of rebirth is sown.
Who were the priestesses of this old Hag?
The attendants to her rock and bone shrines.
Did they, like her,
Raise their slachans and ritualize the great dying back to the roots?
In this time of darkness gather those things that you are not sure of.
Those lingering things that are tangled around you -
bring them to the Bone Mother so she may strike them down.
