Wild Is The Wind (1959)
In 1777 an egg was laid on the buck full moon
during a summer storm
that clattered across the flat fens and prairies.
In 1877, a heartbeat was heard,
when the wind died down.
One hundred years past
and a knotted body stretched
its sleeping length,
scratched
and turned over.
A sigh was heaved for the journey to come.
The shell bound babe did eventually emerge in July 1977; two hundred years young.
.
Rambling alone
along a straight flat road,
a girl
crossed paths with the celestial hen.
*A
long
look
passed between them*
Sensing the need,
the girl offered the chicken a stick
the chicken became all the wiser
offering the girl new perspectives
on how it is to live
with a body."
