you call out to me
no powerful words but the energy seeks
a stillness you would not receive
when I offered it up
a gasp of reprieve
I know
it shows
you crawl along the creek
over broken birch branches
and fallen oak leaves
holding space eternally
for this holy old ceremony
I know
it shows
we came all this way
to the edge of something
unending and grey
I strung together all the words
but to say them aloud
I haven't the nerve
recoil witlessly
think of the tree
inside of the seed
viscous and vile
trite, trim, and tired
kept a pinprick of feeling
ineffable, revealing
rightly welcomed the darksome decade
a whole new life now awaits
