L'aura del campo

'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th 2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

Silenced

Speak with bloody tears
when lips, now sealed,
cannot part.
Once you were shy,
hiding behind skirts,
silent in the corner,
trembling in the closet,
safe until you spoke.
Then you were hushed.
And now you try to speak,
liquid leaking from blood-shot eyes,
writing across a blank face
in a script best understood
by sightless scribes.

For you were ancient before you were born

Enter the dreams of the waiting crone.
Learn her wisdom with each wheezing moan.
As woods clothe you against winds that bite,
Darkness becomes refuge from fiery light.
In her embrace let youthful dreams swim.
In her depths let outside worlds dim.
Forget whatever gnaws, chews or ails.
Cast childhood aside along winding trails.

Let go. Do not be bewildered,
For you were ancient before you were born.
See life renewing itself through the night.

Everything will now seem familiar.
Seek guidance from the watchful crescent 'fore morn.
Reach home by following your own inner light.
