blurried
and not his hag

vain    have been

Fast-paced piece, breathless! I’m sorry, I haven’t a clue as to the source of the words, but I did enjoy the read!

I’m probably waaaaaay off here, but the clit of “clittering,” and “redismembers” and “heat/blurried” puts me in mind of female mutilation, but the Shee is Celtic, so I am simply befuddled. But intrigued.

The poem has lovely sounds and words. That I do know!

The Shee being Celtic is on the right track.
