THE GREEN PLACENTA

Published by the Library of Congress-isbn:1-58235-564-9

Selected semi-finalist

My dream is imminent
the shell will crack open
and let the eternal birthing
unfolds its crinkled wings

Every night I have walked in the moonlight
and caressed the earth
with the touch of my love
with the warmth of my truth

on the 61st second of every moonrise
my soul soared high in the spirit of the land
reverberating a million miles deeper
within my eyes
until the green river
flowed freely from the grass valleys
to meet the rush of the wind's blood

My birth is imminent: the green placenta
is returning to feed the buffalos
and this newlyborn dream shall never die...
Anataali, the calling in my life
