Silver Mountains and Iron Cliffs
Swallowed by Valleys and Rivers
a droplet stretches
stretches...
stretches....
as globule individuates;
divides into individual
in division dual
en divisio deux
learning how to walk on rocks
deserts harsh and hopeless towns
a life come to an end
last May
junkies, Australians and drunks
sauntering in with a guilty grin
from long roads out in revelry
flower child, green inside, would not accept 'REALITY'
silver mountains, iron cliffs
petey moors of the ire green
long cold drizzly scruft and chin
claiming more than i knew,
more than i did,
more than i earned justifiably
wild horses dragging mountains
wild monkeys shaking trees
entitled to a life of more
a life of ease and pleasantry
iTantrum restless stormed the door
but no, i sat, and there begins
ammend my birthright peasantry
the long of darkness, life in mind
life outside
glass snow divine
the little forest depth unfurl
the emrald jade-green sanctuary
what "I" knew and who "I'd" been preoccupied the core of "Me"
a scraping fit, the painful grind, steelwool and oak-axe-foliate
through the bitter mists of memory
"scrubbed clean by the spring" Jays and Cardinals sing of
sweat with sapling and granite wind
humble
humble,
teachable
reachable
humble
humble
once again

Thoughts arise, be aware
Aware of this, immediately lose
Continuously forget object;
Self becomes one piece
When winter is heavy, wool is warm
When bones are dreary, hotsprings are a dream
When stomach is empty, one tomato is a meal
All things rising together
When work is long, rest is thourough
When life is ease, breeze is a storm
When heart is deep, storm is a breeze
Roots and leaves nourish the fruits
World around, running is returning
Peaks are waypoints for valley tramps
Go or dont go
Try or fail
Without the universal treasure, one is poor in any country, in any season
Goldenmorn, brozeneve
Wood is wood, ash is ash
Diagnose, cease
Sow, cultivate
To say "Medicine! Medicine!" is not enough
Head up! Rump back!
Ears to Shoulders! Tail to Tip!
Pull the Tanden! Push the Tanden!
Cradle the Cosmic Egg!
Silver Mountains, Iron Cliffs.
