fire dreaming 2Fire dreaming . June 2013

~

Imagining sparks from earth’s stones

I envisioned the extension

of light

~

Coalescing with heat

I opened like a flower

once again

to the erogenous

seduction of words

~

After the fire

the waiting

seeds

are poised

as I gaze into the unknown

placing my trust

in the river

~

~

nothing and everything

~

nothing and everything

arrives unexpected

~

listen listen

~

and I hear the rising of my own story

surfacing for protection

who am I then?

the sum of my parts

or who I am becoming?

~

this aching is an intention

radiating in waves

the energy

a voluntary take over

I can feel it everywhere

my sex, my stomach, my bottom lip

inundated I feel I am sinking

~

drenched in the running colors

I wade to shore

~

the more I surrender

the more transparent I’m becoming

~

 sentient

I hear

~

the earth is weeping

 

As a child

swing

~

I remember

arms and legs

working

everything into my mouth

pebbles dirt bees

I sang the earth

running rubber knees

kicking the sky swing

standing where the rain just……..stopped

laden fruit trees

~

I was used to shining light in the dark

glasses in the sun

hiding blindness

running ahead

while looking back

I trip upon the truth

~

now that I am on

the outside of the mountain

~

I’m trusting

that

love knows

to bury us

in the knotted masks of tall grasses

before setting fire to the cairn of chaff

~

our children

lie dormant

as seeds of light

~

we

as we were

are gone forever

 ~

now

defying gravity

I am here to witness

love breathing

~

through my own flesh

I want to thank my fellow traveler, Geo Sans. Even though it is a solitary journey, no one goes alone.
