Don't be the "bravo"
who braves the silence
be the dry root
the thirsty moss
the stunted mushroom
be the welcome
for free soup
lentils and bacon
be an outstretched hand .
be the man
the little
ready to live
women's dance
our initiators in love
future amulets
tender sowing
on the sides of the green hills
a hot wind
fricassee of stars
under a shared moon
we strays
the heart eaters
lively in captivating remonstrance
bad in hope
the falconers of beauty .
