Celestial snapshots
Life is honored
in the periphery
Where the
light dims
Gust of air eddies
into itself
Words halt in jagged fractals
You look at
the streaming feathers of peregrine
Very much
aware of the beetle dancing on the dung
Seeking guidance
from the heaven
Ants
They come
out of the depth of mind
to patrol
the scene.
Sniff the landscape
for new thoughts, overturn the old ones
Dig out
reminisces, take note of the forgotten.
Gives all
clear to foragers.
Who spread out
from recess in three four files, cautious and eager.
And set about
to search words where thoughts can reach.
Word midden piles
up and rots with half masticated sentences
The foraged work
out a tale that it fancy.
These are carried back to feed the queen memory.
To reset.
To reassure
that words can make a better world.
And redeem the
day.
