In unexpected abundance, peoples and places, birds, fishes, animals, ores and elements return again and again. Each poem is a celebration of connections among living networks of life in this world and unseen worlds.
The House Built on Sand
I have lived in this house built on sand for quite a few years. I begin to understand why sand sings underfoot. Once part of the main each grain knows
Earth’s epochs of fire and ice floods and dawns filled with birdsong salt seas then sweet water seas.
Our house on the dunes receives news whispered through clear quartz sand.
Heartbeats, drumbeats, shaman flight. Night. Buoyed on night winds that twist around my house I wander colorful countries wearing Joseph’s many colored coat.
I float.
In a tumult of stars Venus blazes a path across the sky shines in each quartz granule passes over distant lands I see in dreams. Awake or asleep in my house built on sand
I go everywhere.
