consecration

dreaming to storms

washing rains of forgiveness
baptize our conjoined waters

encompassed in them we are returned

regenerated again in wet touches, an
undenying grip, unwaning need
coursing through our ancient natures

we are led to pick blossoms
awake to dreams had before
naked moons cavort their crescents
around our many beds

each coupling
luminous against the uncertainties

late hours merging
embracing all palisades open to us
nurturing over tides of sleep
safe and idling in oystered lust

our old beings are shed away

we imagine a gentle sunrise, startled
out of our stilled measures, unentwining
slept hearts renewed and cleaved open
through quietening night
set to rainwater

we caught every pattering
sounds of new hope, for being who we are

rediscovering our nascent home

I find it is wise to listen to the voices that make no sound. Remember - the strings and hooks that we must contend with are both enemy and friend. Take these thoughts as something not really fried but quickly blanched and put under cold water. To overuse them is like draining the flavor and nutrients out of food leaving it bland. The drug of a nation is simplicity.

The ways of the desert are hot and dry. Where there is water there is life. Even a splash of water charges the atmosphere with life energy.
