Unearthen
So much rot and worry
Left here for me to finally bury
Deep beneath this sacred ground
Far away from any silent sound
That still seeks to share
Way more than I care to dare
Mistakes that I have made
Have flourished in the shade
Of grey ambiguous shadows
Penned again in poetic flows
While my ink waters the earth
Anticipating an unearthing rebirth
Left here for me to finally bury
Deep beneath this sacred ground
Far away from any silent sound
That still seeks to share
Way more than I care to dare
Mistakes that I have made
Have flourished in the shade
Of grey ambiguous shadows
Penned again in poetic flows
While my ink waters the earth
Anticipating an unearthing rebirth

Always so fundamental
every single elemental
in the way they exist
in the way they resist
the dark forces of the day
Defying all in their own way
forged back in ancient times
when alchemy was wedded to rhymes
when poets still knew their true worth
among fire, water, wind and earth

Winds make the rains hush
while muddying the ground
drowning out the sound
of grey burning brush

Yep
You want the truth?
You cant handle the truth
You want the facts?
You cant handle the facts
You want the lowdown?
You want the nitty gritty?
You want the som som?
You want the skinny?
Well here it is ...

Soil
It is this place of toil
of struggle
of battle
a place of final rest
quenched by rain
clenched by pain
being both here and there
The proximity of where
a people take root
highest mountains
swiftest streams
fill my poetic dreams
this place I call home
yet only roam in poem
of struggle
of battle
a place of final rest
quenched by rain
clenched by pain
being both here and there
The proximity of where
a people take root
highest mountains
swiftest streams
fill my poetic dreams
this place I call home
yet only roam in poem

How truly simple they are
having come so far
from then to now
from when to how
Aristotle finally unfurled
this mystic magic of the world
how these divine four
have come to mean much more
ever since before antiquity
yet still revealing all our inequity

Higher Ground
I always seem to be found
losing myself upon higher ground
high above all that I see
safe to again finally find me
Right here where I left myself
upon this mountainous shelf
deep within my own solitude
steeped in this lone gratitude
Once more in touch with the earth
once more rediscovering my worth
losing myself upon higher ground
high above all that I see
safe to again finally find me
Right here where I left myself
upon this mountainous shelf
deep within my own solitude
steeped in this lone gratitude
Once more in touch with the earth
once more rediscovering my worth

Poetry response: “For Alva Benson, And For Those
Who Have Learned To Speak” ~ Joy Harjo
Who then does speak for the ground
when it will not make a sound
holding its tongue
holding its breath
While those who claim to own it
have only ever shown it
deep disrespect
deep disdain
Filling up these smoggy skies
with a poison rain that cries
making all poetry bleed
making spring dreams now wilt
For Earth is a most rare poet
who still dares only...

Grounded
And the ground spoke when she was born.” ~ Joy Harjo
I do love the earthy sound
of this solemn ground
when it recites its poetry
a blend of silence with echo
Leaves human words unheard
yet emotions still stirred
by its ancient wisdom
its sacred geologic sense
For the passage of years
like the shedding of tears
passes away slowly
eventually leaving the eye dry
Such slow tectonic shifts
like distant Hopi drifts
leave their hallmark
leave their telltale sign
A reminder...

Funny how they do conspire
beginning first with primal fire
to burn the bramble brush.
Until I feel the chilling rush
of a falling autumn breeze
resonate in these painted trees.
Right before more cold rains
invoke long forgotten pains;
this reawakening hurt
resurrected from barren dirt.

suspect strolls by night
by night
Moon drains
bees search
hopscotch
Earth's face
unoccupied
bottles set aside
the welcome bed
rousing at dusk
you respire
a milk & honey beam
in cotton
the thief of dairy & pollen
brims over
brims over the crimes
of light creamed in
glass
