THIS WINTER WITCH

by Joanna M. Weston
                                     
wide grey cloak quivers
        in a stiff wind
slow feet bring solidity
to the lake
while her sharp nose leers
from the eaves
and the window becomes a portrait
painted by her breath

every time the door opens
a boney toe touches the heater
and a cold voice
shrouds my face
