shaman in the corner
whether you’re on a sunset sail standing in a waterfall waiting to go on stage at the club showering post waves at the beach whether you’re cooking Italian lecturing to a raccoon for littering weeping for the wolves and wetlands mastering pigeon pose in the park whether you’re singing so big mammals thrive yelling at the pelicans to guard the seas swimming in a turtle-rich turquoise ocean dancing on a deck while full moon rises and heavy sun sets keeping heaven on earth from becoming a memory praying as if words will have an effect from his corner cross-legged the shaman nods sits ready with a blessing pipe sends out an approving ripple hinting if you stay in motion all might be made whole meantime while your body acts as if it’s busy living forever the shaman can no longer hold back his one instruction: mind your head First appeared in the Sept, 2023 Issue of Sequoia Speaks |
