The Sun Never Says

Even
after all this time
the sun never says to the earth
"You owe me"

Look
what happens
with a love like that-

it lights up

We Are Fields Before Each Other

How is it they live for eons in such harmony-
the billions of stars-

when most men can barely go a minute
without declaring war in their mind against someone they know.

though that does not keep casualities
from mounting

Our hearts irrigate this earth.
We are fields before
each other.

How can we live in harmony?
First we need to know

we are all madly in love
with the same
God.


-St. Thomas Aquinas

Once in a specail while i sit with the moon, and i feel as though it is just her and i. This is a unique gift she offers to us: love responsable for turning tides yet as personal and intimate as our own mothers arms. I went to the desert to be with the sun, to be baked and dried out on its sandy rocks. after months and months of rain this is all my body wanted. We hiked in gallons and gallons of water into the foothills of the Funeral Mountains. Just my friend Anee, some wildflowers, rocky s... read more

I had this dream where i was covered in leaves, my body was wet and they stuck to me like a second skin. The kind of leaves where only there skeleton is left, only a hint of color, a suggestion of there prior form. they clung to me and i felt embraced by them, like these decaying leaves held the secrets of my future, the lasting songs of my ancestors. I think they were oak. The sky was brown, a rich deep brown, had it been soil i would've dug my hands in deep. i longed to, to see the sky... read more
