Geography


All the damaged places in the heart.
In each of us a wilderness stained
with the imprint of our pain–

its many streams are stagnant, toxic orange,
and when the sunset bleeds
a family of wolves are leashed,
taken to a toxic circus,
and forced to perform a howling, sad
ritual dance that reeks of their captivity.

Are we a complicit audience?
Is our blood toxic?

It is only when questions
are spread on the morning wind
that the heart pulses and beats,
our all too human nature is cleansed.
