Before 2012

Before 2012

If a little bird sings once
and sings twice, and can't
find the wind...
It must run and run, hop and hop,
until it senses the earth
a bit cooler,
a bit more moist.
There it will find the trickle of running water.
And where water emerges
naturally from this baking crust
it will feel sacred waves of energy
envelop it.
If the bird can arrive there and feel these waves,
it will clearly find the wind
and be in the center of it in all it's glory,
and hug it,
and be able to fly
and sing freely.
