Friday Harbor, San Juan Island, Washington State
living with elementals under the Puget dome,
tresses pouring down like the waters of Ganga

onward through the blog

onward through the blog
'til the screen fades

sacred effect

driven by fear to walk in the night
I found the grace to get back there
on the morning of the first day

when I was immortal
I had love
I took refuge

and then in my dream
a fox turned into a small girl
it's all I remember
but it haunts me

my ardor was pure on the first morning
our humanity spiritualized
goddess everywhere
too much for one man

now I look across myriad revolutions of mystic hearts aching
and I see our daughter has grown up meantime
with gold eyes to gaze through space
where her life lies beating
