by Miklós Radnóti

Afraid of the dark 

Said you...

"The Calming of Her Storm"



My mother gave me solace
I fell into her deep hollows
to kiss the wisdom of her 
breath chanting quietly 
I still hear her 
nightingale birdsong caressing 
the soft fluttering

With in a world of worlds 
Not my self, but still the same

like waiting for my garden to grow
without yet having planted it.

cages within the slaughter
Profiteers prey upon the wounded
Branded comodified beings consumed

The Mojo Trick
Loch David Crane
June 1979

Sweat-sticky and hot! The P. I. is not
	a comfortable place to be;
but sit here and perspire (as though by the fire)

My mind is clouded and I just had these thoughts
So much going on my head is constipated
Filled with prime everything I was taught, 
The quantity is carried in my mind inflated

Childhood scents
Salt air, Salty bitter memories
