Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

...as in hush, quiet, still.

meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee:

I like silence. The sounds of Nature soothe but harsh human noises jangle my nerves. I prefer natural music to that which is man-made.

Many times I sit in silence at home. The noises of the city are mercifully hushed and distant. I like it that way.

When I want conversation or have a need to be with people I can easily find folks to be with. Like last night: went to lecture on poetry by a local poet, went to comedy act by traveling Native American group.

That was enough. As a bonus I chatted with a young man from Bozeman who is a student of exercise science at UM. He also has Swedish roots and visited there this August. Wonderful chat.

At home after a long walk in the damp? Silence. I leave the music and radio off. I have a TV for VHS tapes but didn't turn it on. I have no internet at home.

Silence. It can be a good thing.
Unless it's Blogville. Too quiet around here!
