soft . spoken blue
eyes green
slim . long waist beautiful . bones
kind right down to the earth

in the most beautiful way i am little bit of crazy wild
gentle gypsy magic
radical . in the way the root is intimate with soil the type to do whatever
when the aim of poetry is to repair rescue and complete all things
a physical thing like how when something is truly known it moves out of the mind
and into the muscles

have learned . that maybe magic is a measure
of our intimacy with all the great earth of life a dignity
we can give all things
that . allows them to speak
i think art is there a conversation and listening that is tactile compassionate
and patient how helping animals feel free increases their emotional presence love
observing birds wolves and horses in that way

extraordinarily present in person . calm
with a quick . compassionate sense of humour
charismatic when the moment is inviting affectionate
in an easy tactile . natural way
comfortable in rags or fashions talking to horses or the homeless i become intimate
with all things by transforming myself into them as in Vico
or the aim of poetry

attracted to the intrinsic . . . particularly the way energy and moisture move deriving
strength and spirit from nature, crafting warmth and shelter in the natural light
listening, being present spontaneous improvisational radical . ready to go anything authentic
musical natural or ecological can do anything
repair anything make anything out of anything the interconnectedness of all things earth
water wind and fire loving dirt and work
reusing fixing restoring salvaging listening
aware conversation is the space where truth spontaneously enters

in the way Leonard Cohen says words are empty i say . nothing is a fact
the meaning is in the milieu words are just symbols from the paintings
of our infinitely mysterious lives . a fact is knowledge that is dead
real knowledge is always about relationship

i used to be shy of the moon for private romantic reasons
and yet i move
into the moonlight pulled by the crazy blue
belief that love does return
like the sea to the moon

in native American Indian mythology Coyote (little horse) is the spirit that leads back to life

when there is patience with all things one learns the subtleties of the natural expression of world

"the chief function of the city is to convert power into form energy into culture
dead matter into living symbols of art and biological reproduction
into social creativity" Lewis Mumford

maybe we are earth companions bold radical ecological ethical together
mystical seekers breathing oxygen from the sea

i like the acoustic guitar hiking wilderness and ocean exploration mountains - conversation - conserving energy planting seeds that promote deep ecology
that respects all the great earth of life have degrees years in electrical engineering
physics biology and english literature but have fallen for an intimacy with all things
mechanic carpenter artist political . intellectual ecologist a dreamer
playful . to the core

making music living close to the wild creating
warm beautiful places for loving and reading
can live anywhere rough exposed and wild
or fine . warm and safe

"the alternative to being is reacting,
and reacting interrupts being and annihilates [relationship]" DW Winnicott
