I stand in the star riverpouring rain over silvered grassand feel the splashes on my faceblind in this torrent of lightglittering past mesparkling all earthshooting light furyto sister starsAre the stars the source of birth, newness, and creativity? The Greeks credited the muses and the mountain stream, Hippocrene. Though I have drunk from the Greeks, my only answer is mystery, the mystery of our birthing universe, birthing our blue-green planet, birthing life, birthing us, birthing our human awareness and creativity: I struggle to transform my stunned awe into words. I have minimal claim to their making, yet much blame that I don't reforge, recraft, and refine.Most of these poems were written in 2015, feeling like a cracked flute that grates as I warble. Hopefully a few of the melodies sing your song.
