Shamanism of a Stolen Metaphor

One of the limits of reality
was the ability to imagine
to enrich a year via

direct-contact with the Universe
It was the lofty perpetual secret
of being secure in nature
a difficult song to face

the pure rhetoric of
the language without words
the enrichment that came from spirituality
an empowerment of the vibration

of faith, the chi of heroic surrender
a luminous pause before action
a trumpet before morning
to share the day that can substitute

all memory with gardening hope
the ability to alter the past
and the future’s whims
