Poor Grand Willow, beloved ol’ friend.
——————————————————————–
Have you ever tried to push the wind?
Wind is it’s own authority
bearing its gifts
with ferocity and tenderness
in equal measure
it may steal your house
no matter how many nails you own
it will pollinate your field
no matter how many fences you build
it will wrestle the strongest tree
to the earth
a regeneration
through destruction
it will lightly kiss your cheek
until you blush
regardless of how
you try to
turn away
bringing you
the vital living breath
of this wild gorgeous earth
learn this from the wind:
unchain your own voice
sing the song of the earth
be your own authority
take a breath
at your own pace
and give it back
to the Big Circulation
