Thirty Spokes
Countless
Countless minute suns
make up the galaxy that is a human body
and if the pattern goes awry
the center doesn't hold;
pattern and direction
turn at odds against design.
So shall we teach those suns to sing
again in measured harmony,
creating force of voices
sounding with a common goal?
Sing the blood, the flesh, the bones,
the very soul, to traverse their appointed paths
united in direction toward
realization of the will.

The Invitation
It
doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
Sounds literally shape our realities
"Sounds literally shape our realities. Everything that occured in our lives is recorded in our bodies. These events are recorded in our tissue as memories that actually exude a sound, and respond and change shape when engaged by our voice. Sound touches us where hands and words cannot reach."
-- Vickie Dodd
