My thanks to the editors, Diane Driedger and L(ani) Zastre for including my work in this important anthology!
mycelium
entering the woodland
as it enters me,
knurled roots sinking
into moss, lichens, and loam
wearing this empty nest
like a broken crown,
studded with feathers
and eggshell afflictions
breath-bathing between
godly shafts of light,
anointed with the dew
of belongingness
othering here
in this sacred place,
decayed body fruiting
into visibility
