frivolous

frivolous they took me down to the jetty
the boat was anchored and we boarded
frivolous they rowed through the dark
and mist of the early dawn and then they tethered
the rope to a shoreline sappling
I was grappling with unease and their teasing
cloaked faces with talons at their hems
made me mistake my swelling certainty
for fear....and left me thinking I was mad
to be afraid of them....frivolous they scared
me for a moment....it wasn't long before I heard
the horn over at crest of hill....I knew he would be there
frivolous they walked me to the top....the white mare
he rode on...I knew so well....eight years I'd been away
and frivolous they'd made me pay in stripping down my dignity
he....called me....Catherine....I heard it echoing....like the memory
of him....and on the back of the horse there was the child I lost for eight long years
frivolous they let me go to him....they went back
....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
