Into the wild



Recollected memories take us
Again to the origins of our minds
 
Journey into the wilderness
In mechanical denomination
Of nature through efficiency
Of its extinction
 
Illusions of reason ruled
Through the dogma of our times
 
We journey to our center core
To ancient tree of life
In mother womb of
Mother earth
Where all is one and free
 
Within its dream one becomes
the Bird in flight  
and roughened stone is smoothed
 
aligning in its equilibrium of itself
Still as it’s solid in its lasting
climbing ascending to its peak
passing through its passing
reaches top of mountain edge
through dark labyrinths of fear
to open skies in aliveness
of the bright of day
