resurrected sediment

"Hold fast youth, I warn you. Still these hot words, vile with disregard. With slight of hand I will cease your soul in this illusion you call life."

Queen, goddess released the arm of Seana and with a deep slow bow, took hold of soft, vivid garments, turned and vanished into sky, dirt, sea, wherever angry magic goes. Her power left a smell of roses burnt by Seana's fear and exhilaration. And Seana said to herself, "Yes, this is what I want, I will be her."

Seana thought of her own legacy, everyone she honored with her sweet coy love told her she was made of dust from stars. She laid in clouds of undreamed tales and filled her own heart with the grit it took to kill a magic made of goddesses and queens..

And somewhere in sky, dirt or sea, magic took it's metaphorical sword in still and fierce hand.
