Under Erebus

Under Erebus

A woman is standing under Erebus.
She has wrapped all her gifts around her,
including caritas.

A bulky mammal able to feed her young.

See the red fag with its purple shadow,
the fagged road curving towards tomorrow.

There is shelter here, off to the right,
a bunch of metal rods and a cloth.

You wonder if it's going to be enough.
