igniting seeding sweeting youngling maturing eldering
dancing blue stars future memories
living life painting currently
nestled in the valley of blue lake mountains
human hands are rivers from living hearts giving life
living creationing’s consciousness intelligent graceful generosity
seeds have cultural cosmologies
the fate of seeds is the fate of humanity
modern civilization breeds comfortable agreement
to kill the holy in living life
Little girl Semilla and Elder Blue Corn
are hanging out sharing stories
about the Tree of Life
“Ancient people didn’t think about magnetic poles,
they thought about a magnetic star. For many Indigenous
people the Living Tree of Life is a conduit between
Earth and Sky: the roots of past time rooted to a star below us
in the past sky, the upper branches flowering with stars above us
attached to the North Star. And the magnetic, electrical, plasmic
motion between the two simultaneously surging back and forth,
up and down is the spinal cord of the earth,
the spinal cord of the universe,
the spinal cord of our own earth body.” M. P.
apologies for not recording the Sun Dance
the recording contraption lost it’s light
so after sunset they gazed into the starry night sky
and dreamed sweet dreams of
Beauty and Sun Light
who are making Atole from the breasts of Mother Earth’s
oldest living recipes at dawn
