I hate being sick. But my people take care of me and I have what I need, which is a privilege.
My brain isn’t working right because neurological funk. Wish me luck!

injustice rearing
its ugly head
don't walk away
don't tell yourself
it's someone else's problem
take a stand
for justice is not given
but created
by acts of courage
as kindness may always
overwrite
cruelty

Do not be afraid
Of lives that cannot understand an end
I only mean
That timelessness
Will know this love
As written in the whispers
Of a thousand thousand sighs
Inscribing them
Within the black hole’s endless edge
At universe’s end

Leaf buds on the branches
Of this weary heart
Cracked open with a taste of spring
Of loving safe and whole
And though the whispering of warmth were only tales
The light was here
And that was truth enough

You’ll find yourself a place in it
Even breath performs a rhythm
The world is always telling you something
Are you listening?
Do you hear the sounds
If your own becoming

Silence
Glances full of tears and aching
Strength unmaking
Screens too heavy with such pain
As children without safety
They cannot go home
Like all these heavy tears
To loving arms
That cannot hear
Such pain as this

Instructions: build a relationship. I carried them into a PTSD flare, medicine journey, healing trip, transformation, love, fear, grief, joy, wonder, hopelessness, rage.
I did my first reading tonight, and the first card had me weeping.

A burst of color caught in cloud
A flicker’s flash of orange in the morning sun
The rippling of flow & stone
A cherished gift to hold but gently
How I long & love to hold you always
Tracing every place & path
To forge our way
Within this wild life we’ll lead
Together

Sleeping beneath
Ice-flecked oak leaves
As the towhees stomp
And flickers flirt in the ash
Piñon draws attention
To the whole land
Somehow calling
To peaks and valleys
Grasses and bird call

In tongue & teeth
Lips red with hope
That it could taste of this
A softness sharpened
To entrust
These treasures of the heart
Only to caring hands
Oblong serrated green
Is crushed & steeped
Into a brew
To ease transition
Into some new you
New us
New ways
Of being home

Hollowness
Tearing open ribcage
To expose this beating heart
It throbs ferociously
Such life and passion
Courses through these veins
So much it feels is running dry
As if the life would pour from me

Tearing open ribcage
To expose this beating heart
It throbs ferociously
Such life & passion
Courses through these veins
And running dry
As if the life would pour from me
It keeps on pumping blood
Into & through these wounds
Till I am bathing in a pool
Of my own sorrow

Images & sounds
It aches to hold
This pain & sorrow
Stories & the plans
Where do we go
To learn to weave
Between the stones
Between the sorrow
And the bones
Of loss & love
Upon this land
Where we can soar
Sometimes the choice
Is just to go
Where we can hold
It all as a whole

Washimg shapes of sand
As always it has
When love has moved away
Where hollows formed
Imprints upon the shore
Unused to love that holds and stays
These fill with waters
Tide pools of the heart
Some stone or coral holding still
Where life’s not used to being seen

Blood pools silently
Amidst cacophony
Guns firing
Cries weave through
Swirling breath
And breath
And breath
And breath no more

Soaring over valley
Seeing movement
Through & over land
How all of it sustains
In light & dark
In ice & thaw
In crumbling & growth

Long foot lengthens
Launching me on snowy ground
Magpie flies there
Overhead
And I can hear her dance
Of breath & air together,
Hear the creep of water
Deep beneath the surface
Where the seeds sleep softly
Dreaming
Of a brighter day
Where scent is rich
I hear it
I am here

And if your way involves ancient books of magic, dark spirits, and secret meetings with the old gods in the forgotten end of the forest, so much the better.

Whipped clean of leaves
And soil too loose to hold
With roots as strong as this
But now wind whispers
Through these branches
No longer carrying
The past’s array

Touching stone
But I am gone
The seas have swallowed
I have gone beneath
The maw of it again
And here it rolls
The thunder tolls
It echos like
Some god-hewn tantrum
In my bones
I listen
For a drumbeat calling me
Away, away
They say
We cannot stay
Within these walls
