Sacred Places

Sacred Places   
You will walk with the buffalo across these plains  when the suns set flaming in the west.  If you feel the heart of the earth then,  match your steps to its dark beat.  A chill may creep in,  but the breath of the herd will warm your blood.  You'll trip over fences that sear across this holy ground  like the deep battle scars of your ancestors,  ancient souls of the defeated now caught in the winds.  You'll hear the distant snorts of war horses long gone  and weep in the night  
for all that was lost and all that yet remains.  Time is a thief and you can't

Dance of the BisonDance of the Bison   
The instant I got out of the bus, my senses were overwhelmed with the heavy scent of too much salt. I don't think I ever really remembered just how much salt was in that lake until I was close to it. A bit of wind carried the salty smell through the air, regularly refreshing my memory.   
I looked across Antelope Island, which was dead and empty during the winter. There were small patches of hard snow here and there, but otherwise it was mostly brown grass and a few dark brown rocks.   
The other people that had been on the tour bus milled about, waiting for the guide to come and tell us mor Dance of the Bison

The BelieversThe Believers   
Mr. Rowen Darby was going insane.   
A respectable thirty-something, he was dependable in every way. He was always on time, he always finished his tasks, and his word was solid as gold. Most people who met him were instantly struck by his dashing countenance and gentlemanly good looks. He had gone to some respectable Ivy League school, become a lawyer, married a lovely woman, and had two strapping young boys. He was everything every other man wanted to be.   
To all appearances there was nothing wrong with Rowen at all. His home life was peaceful, his children and wife loved him, and his younger The Believers

The Search - A SonnetThe Search  a sonnet   
Where will you find that which you don't know?  In tea leaves dredged deep down in your cup?  In the sound of a lonely cricket's chirrup?  Or in the way a tree's branches grow?   
Rocks become smooth in the time-stream's flow  until all of your thoughts have nowhere to go.  Stop chasing these tails, small seeker-child,  your questions have answers clear, true, and wild.   
If cracked old voices run through your head  tumbling about like the ocean's roar,  they're weaving in you an archaic thread  and tying it in to your very core.  For The Search - A Sonnet

Grave LettersGrave Letters   
I used to know the structure of things:  the way of your elusive smiles,  the stones of this house,  the steady, sturdy trees -  these things I can no longer recall.  Replaced with other memories:  watching the castle collapse,  dreading your emergency,  endless and silent nights  
by your bedside.   
I wrote you my heart -  all the words that froze  
on the edges of my lips -  things I wanted to tell you,  things you never read,  finished too late.   
Maybe you still have them -  the ruined pages I left  in the dust Grave Letters

The field forgetsSun kissed grass sways gently in the wind, almost silently  
except for the subtle hiss from passing breezes.  
My fresh footsteps indent green serenity  and I stop to gaze at my wake, watching the grass slowly rise  
as if I had never been there. The field forgets

Journal Entry: Thu May 8, 2008, 6:55 PM


steeled with the sheen/of what green stars can make it to our gate





Problems... mostly gone!

Yes, I'm doing much better than I was when I posted my last journal. Since that's the case, I'm feeling happier and more motivated. I'm sorry for any who've been wondering what happened to me... I haven't been going through my deviantwatch inbox thingie... so I have a lot of catching up to do.



Four Years!

I only just realised that I've been a member of deviantArt for four years as of last Tuesday. I feel like I've come quite a long way since then... a lot of the stuff that was in my gallery before has been deleted, but I still have one that I submitted on the same day that I joined. It would be Untitled. I remember being really proud of that poem when I wrote it.

Unfortunately, my job demands many hours of overtime. All I ever do is work and sleep. Every once in a while I get a day off.
