What, who, or where
the sages portend
What, who, or where
the shamans belie
What, who, or where
the scholars defend
What, who, or where
—not questioning why

oh fettered women,
do you walk symmetrically?
lining up your steps with calculation/closer to death, end of the day
oh faceless noons,
do you tread me and my flawed desires?
bringing your midnight reflections,washing over me like troubled water
oh fettered women,
do you believe in shamans, blindness, or love?
are we all broken yet?

Autumn waits on the back of September’s wings /
transforms her green to enviable hues /
the castanets of crickets like shamans sing,
chant to the moon ~ their hallowed muse.

She moved carefully into the light bulbs
Didn’t want to stumble into the gloom
The shamans looked on speculatively
Unable to raise in the silence
Another dark and brilliant spot
Strange in the rolling velvety space
Played at the far end of the odd feeling
She went deeper into nothing but an unlocked someplace else ahead after either

gently on the roof
water marches as rice grains,
manna from heaven
attend our homeland,
exiled clouds pour your romance
onto cracking earth.
Our poor scorpions,
in bellies of hot, dormant
wells raised their generations.
Shamans still dance in rings, arousing bands of blessing.
Timbre grows, grains gaining size, dusty dreams refreshing.

She searched for her brother everywhere;
in the woods, fields, and inside rivers. He was nowhere
to be found. He had vanished like a firewood spark
fading in the cold, evening wind. "He was carried to the skies
by Cloud Warriors!" some shamans said. Today, embracing her brother,
she is filled with overflowing joy! The shamans had it all wrong;
her brother had come back as a Divine Bear, to come and take her
to a new home; a place where timelessness and bliss are One.....
