The voice of two pipes songing<br />
the sky this morning is grey and arched, autumn’s racoon ghost all bushy-tailed<br />
and rancorous<br />
what throws shadows on our hearts, the owl’s wing at night, the sudden tree cracking in the wind<br />
the hum as leaves fall through mud on the heath<br />
the hung kites in the trees fracture, fickle in the earth and mind<br />
another story buried with spanner and flower<br />
another name lost to the pebble, still<br />
you go on<br />
a pause as every word washed off in the bath falls at your feet<br />
and you pick up the hair matted off the floor<br />
tell me then reader, how shall this too end<br />
with a word or time stuck in a ditch, the ice cubes quaking in a glass<br />
the inevitable purge<br />
have you memorized the wind on the way to the grave you could not find<br />

mossy boulders<br />

your jade seat<br />

a bee pillows it<br />
with pollen<br />
and makes<br />
a flower out of it

Canada (September, <strong>2024</strong>) – We arrived in<br />
Curve Lake to a traffic jam of vehicles all<br />
looking for parking before winding our way<br />
down to the pow wow. We walked several<br />
kilometers, arriving late for the grand entry.<br />
As the gathering came into view; a sense of<br />
elation and excitement grew within. After a<br />
jaunt around the festivities; we settled down<br />
to watch the dancers, some in spectacular<br />
regalia. Several dancers had red hand prints<br />
covering their mouths. Seemingly a striking<br />
contrast of protest and recognition, whilst<br />
celebrating culture and history. It was a<br />
remarkable experience, which I hope to repeat<br />
next year.
