Fascinated with the columns of ice that rise from the dirt of these woods. Amazed at the beauty of the Japanese term for them, shimo bashira. 霜柱 shimo bashira (Ice Needles) Water specks each triad a protosoul traveling alone and in concert with sibling souls enshrouded in soils warm as the blood of earth traveling upward to emerge adhered to one another in clear cold air entwined as brittle rope carrying specks like kayayo girls packing wellwater over dryly frozen mud cracks far below the woods floor of my own earth. -December 8, 2014  |
