Eremos

Deep heeding of
Quiet in
Sound - the
Void in and around
Sound -
Knitting the
Acoustics of
Time and sanctity.

Ravens croak at
Rock-clatters down a
Ravine;
Willows crinkle at
Wind-stir of
Brook-burble.

Ear and instinct
Schooled for
Footfall: the
Fear that
Inches in during
Solitude.

Monastic quest for
Stillness, seclusion -
Ever deferred,
Ever thwarted.

Madding crowds
Thrust us into
Wild places – into
Eremos, withdrawal.

Lone stillness
Renders worlds -
Inner, outer – ever more
Audible.

Cacophony in silence
Thrusts us back into
Madding crowds.

Devils claim the
Wilderness as their own.

Then
Rupture into
Being beyond
Mind-manacled clamour -

Life toeing the
Outer fringes of
Possibility.

Jeopardy dwells in
Refuge;

Strength nestles in
Fragility;

Annihilation shadows
Devotion.

Once deep in the
Desert, there is
No
Return.

Trinitite

Instant as
Movement and momentum -

Seeking alms from villagers,
Shirking the world for the
Sake of the Real - to

Surrender care for
Tomorrow, to

Make humble-true
Plain flesh.

Like those earliest
Wanderers whose
Pictographs litter the
Rocks of the range, they
Source food, remedy and
Narcotic from
Beast-plants edging the
Dead Man’s Journey.

Cool crevasse
Pocketing water to
Slake their drouth;

Blind-from-birth
Sight of white
Flash to
Flux their instant - in a

Split-second
Charge-pulse of
Neutron flight.

Copper-iron embodiment,
Soul-grit redemption seed:

Now
Unearthly isotope of verdant
Alamogordo
Glass.

Heron Moksha

Her hallowed
Killing grounds sprawl amid
Teeming shallows, pools and
Sumps.

Her
Neck-bend sinew
Erupts into arid
Dart of ritual impalement:

Small fry go head first;
Eels are dashed against
Rocks or bill-skewered;

Birds, ducklings, voles -
Drowned, bludgeoned,
Swallowed whole, with

Fur, bone and ungual husk
Spewed and set aside as
Sacral gem-pellets.

Her
Neck-bend sinew:
Pinecone composite of
Trinity-seven primes;

Twenty-one cervical vertebrae
Retracted in flight -

Twenty-one skulls
Knotted into
Dark Mother
Choker.

Well, I don't get nervous much, but tonight I am reading at an open mic poetry night. No screens, just faces. Real names, real reactions. Yikes. Still, I have always wanted to try and the world is burning, better sneak it in before the buzzer. #poetry #openmicnight #poetryreading #vss365 #vsspoem.
