One With Sand Dunes

One With Sand Dunes

I become one with sand dunes by the sea 
to face the empire warship off the coast 
and chant with voice of wind to indicate 
cry of the heart that people hide in words 
for we are dream technicians of the mind 
as holy vessels of the star-born soul. 

We dance on sand dunes by the singing sea 
to weave our spirits in matrix of light 
so we can hold the bitter grief of loss 
that blossoms from cracks in our mirror hearts 
through resurrection of the holy word 
as messengers of hope the Earth preserves. 

Small particles of sand dunes form our souls 
through chemical flash of congealing thoughts 
that sparkle flares of soft electric words 
when mothers create our bodies from wind 
so we can dance and sing sorrow to joy 
as wingless angels of the spinning globe. 

Becoming one with sand dunes of the mind 
we build bridges to connect virtual worlds 
that shimmer in net of each human brain 
when we translate songs of eyeless seers 
to other languages our tongues express 
as shamans leaping through the multiverse. 

Awakening with sand dunes of dead stars, 
I stretch my body from Earth to the sky 
to feel the sun glow bright inside my heart 
till I become first flash of the big bang 
and remember flaring forth into suns 
as planets that nurture organic gods. 

Floating over sand dunes of divine breath, 
I feel the sun strike the bell of my soul 
which vibrates psychic spirit of the void 
which flows and swirls through waves of particles 
which spiral into planets blooming souls 
as humans giving each other god names. 

Assembling puzzle of sand dunes with words, 
we code cultural ideas into memes 
which replicate across landscapes of hope 
when people translate shaman songs of tropes 
to build Bridge of Remembrance between minds 
as jesters mock mad kings on windy heaths. 

We climb sand dunes where the moon meditates 
since ghosts are absence of the ones we love 
who haunt us with their voices in the wind 
revealing how we transform from the sea 
through beams of starlight in bipedal form 
as fish evolving into singing gods.

  2. A Bridge Connecting Worlds: Remembering Jerome Rothenberg

    He saw poetry as an ongoing shamanic journey, a ritual system unfolding across continents and time.
