Speak through Seed
—after Hadara Bar-Nadav’s “Death by Design”
Within our world I am
a secret to some
a secret to none.
I dream to run
by the pinked water
through choices, past pasts
I lost the light
candle, path, pain
still cries to me.
“Indiana” of Lenker & Meek
grand reminders hanged
high treason for change—
Chug along,
push along,
play-along crescendo
to reincarnation—
By wing my kin
goes seed to soil to sky to rafter
By brushstroke my omen
goes to speak to pry to seek to look after.
