Synopsis
Sit back and get comfortable, folks!
In this episode, I stand at forest edge and offer one of my poems to the local Guardians of Place — among them: white oak, fox, sugar maple, barred owl, spotted geranium, and coyote.
The gentlest wind; then, silence. One brief moment. Just us breathing together and losing ourselves within night’s grace-filled hush.
Poem
Veiled by shadows, my amygdaloid eyes gleam, Lush Flowering Moon mirrored in hazel irises. Scorpio, wise, passionate lover, embraces His lunar mistress, such divine transfiguration. What wild magic do I need to weave tonight, As coyotes yip under scintillating buxomness? What intentions do I unbind, a knife cut Freeing possibilities from ethereal womb? Going deep, I trance between Sea, Earth, and Sky, The primordial way rising to kiss grounded feet.
