First Poem in Escalante, UT

I swear,
Every moment is poetry.

I've got 'it,'
I'm 'in.'

Eternal blessings
Of the goddess who lives, Diana says,

'Peace be with me, and to you,
What you choose.'

This is the life,
This is the way to burrow,

I'm dug in deep--Odysseus
Among the sheep,

My eye's golden fleece
Against the frail bleat, and

Ego?  I swear to stand
For the least.

Ergo my friend is
Every-man.  Now, what hasn't been

Bought?  Who hasn't been taught
To fear their neighbor?

I swear to one-god,
All for One--One for all.

One is all, all is One,
Friend, call me

Fire and fire,
The sermon of wind,

Flame and fleece, the one
Who gathers it, and

Chases the hare
With the ox, Aleph and Arnaut,

Blessed be the sun,
My will be done,

One earth
As it is with all.
