All the energy once flowing
Now sapped into the gray.

The words crowd in my head
Frantic, spinning, unrelated.
Thus works my brain.

Colonized
Beaten
Lost
Missing
The children of the land
Tears of loss.

I need some color
In my life
Redyed.

Rapture
The one day I could be gone
Sadly still here.

Seeking the ways of my ancestors
Buried beneath the years
Hidden by those who fear
The fire and wisdom of Ancients.

My poetry silenced
In busy days
Other art sustains me
For now.

Our future a question

The hush gives way
To the highway's
Early rush.

Age in these bones
The skin weathered
Aches earned through time
Wisdom colored by circumstance
Unseen by the young
In this moment.

Falls, drips,
Caressing skin,
Sinking deep.
Fated to overcast skies,
Here a moment,
Moved in gusts,
Returning on new winds.

The musts in my art
To find freedom
In creativity.
