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.

Seymour: before you die...

Oh, Seymour —

Make me happy, Seymour. Water me, feed me, speak to me.

I'll sing about the trials of my day: dawn, noon's sun-scorch, twilight, the ...

Nights of White Satin

as you fall asleep unaware I keep watch over you.

Last time you traveled no one watered me and I feared for my existence.

Then you nearly drowned me with tears as you sobbed it was all a mistake.

I've been here 15 years.

I helped you bury your cat, your dog, your mother ...

I'll miss you.

Who will you gift me to? Do they know that I can sing?
