Sigrid Ermine Poet Bio

Sigrid's Sandbags

Braced to fight tough for triumph 
         Stockpiled testosterone
         Fizzed bicarb in her bloodstream 
         Sucked bitterness alone


         Flooded home, battle surmounted 
         Safeguard marshy roost
         Maladvised maveric trudged pond
         Stacking bags of no use

        
         Swirling water swarmed by spiders
         Fear erased from register
         Starless, deserted street industrial 
         Duty lead dim endeavour 
         
     
         Depth defiantly rejected her efforts
         Scream's echoing ignorant
         Yelled "help" at selected emptiness 
         Six months pregnant Sigrid


         Fortfied ego, throat sore, exhausted 
         Dry in her fortress upstairs 
         Concede agitated bruises encumber
         Defences laid dull despairs 




          
                      31st March
          Dependence is not defeat
