A New Year’s Turning Towards The Sun Printer friendly page Print This

shivering before dinner,
the butternut squash soup warmed me
then the thought-feel to call a friend
who is dealing with a loss,
the warmth breeding warmth,
the fire heating a fruit of the Mother Earth
and sending the warming through me . . .
warmth where it needs to go
so long as there is a way
of starting the fire again,
the fire going as it goes
warming
the feelings going
where they need to go
so long as there is a way
of starting the feelings again―
so as to un-hoard the separation,
dispel the holier than thou
 
Mankh (Walter E. Harris III) is an essayist and resident poet at Axis of Logic. In addition to his work as a writer, he is a small press publisher and Turtle Islander. See his new book of nonfiction with a poetic touch, “photo albums of the heart-mind”.
