Sun Dance<\/span><\/h2>\n

If only I could
\nthrow words
\nonto the page
\nlike Jackson Pollock
\nthrew paint onto the canvas,
\na kind of divine anarchy,
\nbeautiful chaos
\ncelebrating nothing
\nbut itself,
\niridescent,
\ndripping molten stalactites
\nin fluro red, orange and green
\ndescending
\nover the primordial world
\naeons before
\nthe red blaze cooled
\nand life emerged,
\nslowly,
\nlaboriously,
\nfrom the cobalt blue.<\/p>\n
