Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

Galaxies dazzle in a dance;
strewn suns swirl
with their minions,
mere eddies on streams
of cosmic consciousness.
This rock we sleep upon
provides spare repose
from a never-ending enthusiasm
engulfing us — rest — Zmitri,
tomorrow I leave you to yourself.

Your cool depths betray no emotion,
Zmitri; your surface, undisturbed,
remains unriffled.

I would toss a warm pebble
onto your frozen puddle,
to let you know that I've visited,

a quiet reminder to let you know —
you're not alone.

Intertwined,
bold morning glory vines
grow together
reaching rare heights,
emerald ropes thrusting spades
at distant suns; purist
white and Prussian blue
trumpets nourishing bees.
And what of these?
Two lovers hugging? Zmitri —
it should be you and me.

On the face of it,
I've faded,
Zmitri.

The fire churning in my belly
has become a dying ember.

But I'm still a fiery Dragon
in love with a musk Rat.

I must face it...
Fire in love with Water.

A breeze ripples the water,
distorts the reflection of a lily,
a wavering phantasm of another time.

Your voice enters my mind
the would'ves, could'ves, should'ves echo —
and your image quavers with lost rhyme.

Zmitri, I miss you.

I beckon your lips. I caress your hips.
What do moon-lit moths and flutter-by's
know of love — beyond the sip
of nectar, Zmitri? Do they blow a kiss,
or embrace in a hug — or like us
are they merely bugs...

You voted?

Nah...

Why?

Why bother.

They're coming for your brother you know.

Take him.

And they have eyes on your sister.

So what.

Do you care about anyone?

Nope.

So... I have a country to sell...

How much?

Martha Root left Pennsylvania and traveled four times around the world, toting hat boxes and suitcases to meet Queen Marie of Romania in 1923. She was rootless but not ruthless, a champion of a universal cause she wholeheartedly believed in.

One.
One.
One.

Zeros and ones?

My number is quite common but it loses

its color,
its sound,
its flavor

when reduced to units of zeros and ones.

Call me humanity's — better-half twin.

Go one beyond one.
Know my number.

Improper? That would be my middle name, or me, when I'm riled up with rage from your abuse. You chuckle as I make a spectacle of myself. Jokes on you. After I call you out, Imma callin' yo momma.
