From Prayer To the Thunder God

Thunder in the morning I complain  
Summer's even  
Hoeing in the rain I soon quit the field. . .

Freedom,

The spring at the one tree

From which we drank

Sweat pouring off us

In the grasshopper blur of Midsummer

The lightning dances in my eyes

The thunder rattles in my ears,

O Great Spirit
To be,to be
Freefalling and free
