having slipped through the land
last night, here, through
this clay stuff found under feet
i wondered at my mouth
forgetting the words to speak
and realize we are blind
and none can hear
what i say in the anyway

including me.

so i gave over to falling
until i could fall no more
and sat unexpectant down
there in the below
waiting for the dark sun days
to call me back up, out 
and forth, but only
if what is when might be

in the cauldron season
reconciling liminal me
standing bíle and center
both eyes to boiling sea

born of raven and apple
kin to the stone
thorn prick'd and blooded
given to bone

riding the crests,
sailing to home

let us go beyond naming and
enter the spirit of the matter—
tear down the fences that divide

this bone is not bone, it is bone
this flesh is not flesh, it is flesh
this stone stands beyond stone

wash away the scarlet boundaries
cast by the plough, hewn by scythe
listen to the small known by "night"

lost weirds wording
mute mouth movement
i blind eye my fuzzy sight
waiting for fires to burn

your permission is
not my intention
your permission is
not my affliction
i break earth in lines
in my own damned time

nightsitting, waiting
giving over to my dross
'til she bare feet comes
never touching ground
never turning 'round, again
