From the Belly of the Whale to the heart of a Bear

(Ahah Oula Alana Oula Ulari
Jahi Uni Jaan Jaan
Ulnii Ahiii Urierh
Air Uri)
I was carried
In the Belly of a Whale
To the Heart of a Bear Who asked 'why are you hear Woman"
I answered "To be as One'
"Very well, you are we"
Sioux walks onwards
In the land of Bears, with the Wolf pack
Walking on Beaches in tall Wheat
I desire falling backwards,and to be held
Roll in the earth with another body
Which makes me feel nervous and unsure
Ill be loved and cherished, like the freedom I feel in wanting Love
On this hex ridden path to Peace
On reflection
I'm unpacking thoughts to move forward
Guided by Angels residing in my gut
Whilst sword fighting invisible ghosts
Exiled and exorcising hurt
Playing like a cocktail in my mind
Of fire and debris from a shared past
An inner garden of grief
In torrential rain a distant mist rising
Through warm air streams
And a haste to gather the crops before the frost
A shard of sunny days and rest bite
Dreamlike, Solitary walks in Siberian woods
Teaming with Mushrooms
Out of the Blue Picturesque chocolate box cottages
Im filled with a sudden surprise and intrigue
Of New hopes of seeing Whanau in Mount Maunganui
By loud moose cries and the distant echo in long silence
A burrowed study of constellation movement
Anticipating the rewards of the hut
A good feast of buttery creaminess
Eats away this knotted ache
Replaced by a sensual naval passion
Scrooming nourishment from the core.
