Mailing It In

Neil Cain recently mailed me a poem from a friend of his for publication. I really like snail mail, especially when it contains poetry. My snail mail address is: C.W. Pruitt II, 2530 Tacoma Circle, Apt #306, Indianapolis, 46220
Below is the gorgeous poem Neil sent me through the caring auspices of the U.S. Mail:

I live lifetimes
while the Sun shines,
millennia at night

as dust on prairie breezes,
infinitely light
I sink softly as sediment
in the River's calming currents

And I hear the wild cries of wilderness
piercing thru the stillness
as the call of our one Mother
as exiled governess
come to take her rightful seat

so we burn from within
with the wildfire's heat,
thoughts scattered as leaves
on Hurricane winds

Theodore Lucero
2010
