Sun Moon Dancing at Rainbow’s End
Initiation…embodiment…right action
Dances Sacred Drifting into BEING
High Desert
Coyote Medicine Sings
Wise Joshua Trees extend
prayerful rejoicing limbs to the Heavens
Smoldering White Sage and Sweat Lodge
purify and open…

Prayer Ties to set intention aflame
Wisdom takes my hand
in Sunwise motion
leading me to the placement
of North-West
White shrouded light-beings…

Cornmeal Offerings…Nourishes
Sacred Elements
Blessed Directions

Resisting slumber
Orion floats from Northeast to Southwest
Dark Moon…luminous starlight…
Path of Milky Way pours from Breath
Emerging from Silence
Symphonic sonorities of snoring
A phrase of dissonance
A cadence
A harmonic unison
Continuing humorous cyclical vibrations
Early morning…the Trio sings…
Venus shines gloriously
Mars just below
A Sliver of Illumination
…
First and second mornings
a slim sliver of Sister Moon…
her lit portal
through the gateway to the Heavens
“Maha Prajna Paramita!”
Third and fourth mornings…
She is Dark
“tributary streams flow through the darkness”
Second Sun
A Dance is severed
Emotions flow as energy
Wisdom hears the longing cries
to sing her song
to dance her dance
