Lunar eclipse (blog entry) Waiting for the moon to turn red

I’m sitting here waiting for the moon to turn red

listening to jazz.
It’s already noticeably darker outside
with just a tinge of the earth’s shadow across the moon.
The Mayan story says that when the moon ... read more

I was born with the sound of water (blog entry) I was born
with the sound of water
flowing down stream.
I remember the feeling
of my fathers strong hands
on my head and shoulders.
I flew into his hands
arms and legs outstretched.
I remember the look
on my mother’s face
the first time... read more

Always not wanting
to leave
Black Bear
how could I
forsake her
my oldest love

with all this green
and the sound
of water
flowing downstream

the ridges
a silhouette
burned in my shut eyes

how can I go
from this place
of my birth

leaving never easy
when others
are here

my family
a scattered group
stay together
for moments
and days
here and there

always not wanting
to leave
each other
this place
Black Bear
my oldest love

Waiting for the moon to turn red

I’m sitting here waiting for the moon to turn red

listening to jazz.
It’s already noticeably darker outside
with just a tinge of the earth’s shadow across the moon.
The Mayan story says that when the moon eclipses
the jaguar ate it,
you better watch out because it might get a hankering for people too.
I don’t think there are any jaguars around here
but there are a few hungry mountain loins.
Watch out for stray cats in the city when the moon turns... read more

I was born
with the sound of water
flowing down stream.
I remember the feeling
of my fathers strong hands
on my head and shoulders.
I flew into his hands
arms and legs outstretched.
I remember the look
on my mother’s face
the first time she looked at me
cheeks flushed pink
glistening green eyes
full of warmth
and love and wonder
welcoming me into this world.
I’ve heard the story
so many times
that I can see the faces
of the people who were
gathered around
our summer b... read more

Black Bear is sacred to me
Birth place
Heart place
where I go most often in my dreams

Black Bear is in me down deep
I bleed Black Bear each month
I wear scars of Black Bear
on my fingers my toes my chin
I am Black Bear
though I no longer liver there in body
in spirit I am always there

Black Bear is so familiar
yet I can go there and discover
things I've never known
Black Bear is my home
among many homes

We are a family spread across the earth
connected by a place de... read more
