Equinoctiial Honey Sonnet


Hold ceremony in the everyday
Suspend in equinoctial honey


Drink your potion with intention—
a poem can be descriptive medicine


you concoct for yourself
and others in ever-widening spirals


Seen and unseen, couplets
circle into DNA ladders


Eat Something Wild Every Day
and You Will become Wild


Wild on the horizon, circular, the plants
sing their songs of glee all round


So let us sing—equally in night and day to hold
mountains, time, balance deeper into the year
