Chiseled Sapien By Diana Moreton

fantast kinship effuses profound import
transcendent primordial foragers gather
when smokey, fired flames were enmist
bearing seeds from freshly torn earth

tall, blonde tornado blows briskly by
re-planting green hearts in soiled muds
reaching into moribund dairied cradles
shaking sleepers consciences awake

seminal strands of cow, pig, fish, bird
escape a carnivorously plagued culture
reclaiming their savory hidden Hesperides
shangrila and eden; Islands of the Blessed.

Written by Diana Moreton 2004
for the wonderful Ingrid Newkirk.
