b'I am wearing a Cloak\\xa0invisible to some,seen by others.\\nIt is covered inlizards and lionesses,scallions, fennel and myrrh.Rare jewels are held in placeby articulate embroidery.Exotic flowers thrive and bloomon the seams, it seems.\\nIn the Moonlight,Ravens, on my shoulders, advise Me.Tinsel, woven in my hair, travels to my waistas did the tresses of my twenties.\\nIn the Sun,I sparklelike the Ring of Fire at Full Eclipse.\\nThis Cloak is significant garb,finer than the illusions of fashion on Paris runways,simpler than an apple a day.\\nJust like this Garment,My words and Spiritare gobble-dee-gook to some,accessible to others.\\nThis Wrap was made for Me.\\nAs a \\u201cmature\\u201d Woman,what matters most, is that,I see MySelfensembled and assembled in this way.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nTo Me,My Cloakis warm, mighty and miraculous,made thick by the experiences of challenge,yet willingly vulnerable to falling rain.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n1/5/18 Jill Rothman'
