Literary Orphans

Twin Sisters by Toti O’Brien

She is the tightrope

I tread unbalanced.

Blade of danger

vertigo of nostalgia

scream

of impossibility.

 

Though I possess

for potential exchange

the same cheap coin

she keeps in her palm.

The crone

gave me my share.

 

I also can summon winds

master rain

move underground tides.

Never will. I am

the back of the mirror

the broken side.
