Kahuna's Way
Twisting through high cane,
silver green, tossing in the trade winds,
toward the mountain wall
dark green jagged, deep shadows
where a warrior prayed,
ancient silence, Kahuna's way,
beyond King Sugar
and the city that is coming.
Hulemalu Road
Kauai
41, In The Honolulu Public Library
Like beautiful fish
moving slowly through coral,
they eddy through the library,
dark hair, bright dark eyes,
the wisdom of their mothers
lying gravely on their faces;
ready to love, to stay,
they flick away
on currents deep and proper.
For Catherine, someday
in a quiet hour, wondering
what is possible
When I hold your mother
while she holds me,
all that was, is;
the future comes
moment to moment,
complete.
For this, salmon swim
their river, elephants
remember, wild geese
call out at dusk.
I fought and risked,
trusted and betrayed.
How can you find another
before you find yourself,
traveling the heart's way,
alone, unsure, knowing only
that you must?
Rage's Place
Put your forehead
on the ground and
pound your fists.
Curl on your side,
close your eyes,
scream silently.
