The Listening Project: A Poetics of Relation (poems and collages by Alexis Pauline Gumbs): Kriti Sharma: Everyday Ethics
http://listeningproject.blogspot.com/2007/01/kriti-sharma-everyday-ethics.html
Wednesday, January 10, 2007. Kriti Sharma: Everyday Ethics. Sometimes you hold words. Suspended between your hands. Like a transplanted honeysuckle. Back to your throat. Sometimes you toss words. High with your eyes. And everyone waits for them. To fall in into the telekenetic place. You're conjuring with the rest. And sometimes you catch words. Low in those blooming hands. Steadied to your focused chin. And safe in your open mind. What I mean to say is. To the miracle of response. Because LOVE gets thre...

http://listeningproject.blogspot.com/2007/04/michelle-lanier-ribald-farming.html
Thursday, April 12, 2007. Michelle Lanier: Ribald Farming. Angels stain the air. When you reach for words. The soil you trace. And birds sound the calling. To water what knows. So i'll curl a streamer. I'll smooth a mound. I'll balance a birthing gourd. Meaning I will cultivate grace daily. Thank you Alexis. This is a priceless gift. It feeds me on this morning. It inspires me to be shown OUR light through poem and image. You make me more beautiful! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Because LOVE gets t...
