River Creatures Speak
CLOSING these eyes
reaching outside all reality
you come inside inevitably
surreal being one
dancing twinkle little toes
being mice is little woe
i lost the bread crumbs of a path
inside this deep green forest
little feet wet upon green grass
stopping i look: out there, under stars,
i saw myself focus on the soul i am
reading, drawing, singing, i found a river
of rivulets and eddies swirling around me
the frog croaked, "important to be authentic!"
The tadpole, "Express your emotions with hesitation!"
The skies, "Those wo care about you won't be bothered
by what you say, and those who are bothered
do not matter."
