trying to survive in the wildlap of nature
one sees the necessity of kneelings,
of scrapeing knees on river rounded stones
to kiss sweetsips of water,
of soiling knees with damp soot
to blow life into the shuddering morning coals
i perform these reverent acts
as means of self-preservation:
to appease the integrity of flesh,
project this sharp pale voice
that cries for the silent natures
