  • Untitled song for summer twilights

    [3 July 2019] The last rays of the sun sink below the horizon – shadow steals in, gently;sight and song and swept up in a grander vision, lingering looks lovingly lavished long to spring forward, to find themselves caught in the chrysalid chorus of two beating hearts. — This post was reblogged atBy the Mighty…

  • As wind rustles in long ríver grass

    [2 July 2019] As wind rustles in long ríver grass, And settles ín dens and lilies and breast; As róots spríng, dig deep down and hóld tíght, always guest When sun mingles with water in glass And pools in quiet places, in the deep, in the crevásse, In pass through in journey to sun’s nest,…

  • The Givenness of Longing

    [1 July 2019] Midsummer midnight air is a sacredness all its own – The last relics of era when bygones were still being forged, Cradled in the halls of the forebears of the now, Suspended in the intransitory, Illuminating the hale tongue and the meek spirit: not fire, Not frost, but a light unique to…

  • The Last Rite of Irenaeus

    [28 June 2019] Let us go back to the time of porcelain bowls and clay pots – The evening sky stretched above us like Indra’s net (A time not yet known, but sounded down through a known, Winding and wounding and weaving together Somethings that meant nothing less than everything on their own) The night…

  • June [a character sketch]

    [22 May 2019] June. The warm air floats by gently carried by a cool undercurrent and the scent of water. She sits there, eyes closed, shoulders dropped, face glowing and shaded by her wide-brimmed straw hat she bought years ago from the shop down the street. She breathes in. The air fills her lungs with…

  • Amaterasu (or, on the summer solstice)

    [21 June 2019] It’s funny how time is built by connotation – Moments made holy by association: No day, no moment Can bear the weight of itself, nor can Theros crown herself – Each day, each moment Stands Strung together between this and this and the next, Each passing thought a testament to itself, A…
