18.  April 23

time is not linear,

earth is matrilineal, as we

circumambulate

circumnavigate

circumlocution

circle around the fire,

the center of the earth

entrain yourself

back to the old queen of hearts,

s.e. harold st.

la reina de los corazones

y los clubos

happy/sad

19.  I don't need a grand home, with fine hardwood floors,

branches spread, o'er my head

tall grass and soft leaves, for my bed,

i don't see life as pest or weed,

mother earth provides all i need.

20.  si pudiera vivir nuevamente mi vida,-

mi poema yo escribo lo opuesto.

viviria con mas cuidad.

trataria cometer menos errores

y no malgastar mi joventud.

pero yo chiste,

no cambiaria nada

en realmente.

21.  a dios le pido

que mi familia tenamos salud,

que mis suenos venga verdad,

que mi vida sea mas facil,

que terminan los guerros,

que vivamos en la paz,

que la gente sean libertad,

que encuentra allegra.

22. in dreams the sufis call to me. swirling, dancing by the riverbank.

the bel fire burns bright.

the drums,

the dancing girls,

strawberries in the wine,

songs and magic.

but i,

awake, in the city,

go to work, school, dr. appt.

but,

in my heart, in my heart,

i am dancing.
