The Iris Curse
-The haunting of one of my novel characters


sirI gnivaeL


The
Heart
Enslaved
_

leaving Iris
by spelling her name backwards
in snow
bleeding
her silhouette


leaving Iris
against a line
in a blue notebook
inked
in mourning black
_

In
Rain
In
Snow

_ _ _her footprints submerge

Casting
Unwanted
Red
Spells
Exposing

her name
again
