stirring the ashes, J Rothenberg

STIRRING THE ASHES

sun bear

moon buffalo

THE BEAR ROBE

had no claws

MIDWINTER VISION

paddles & ashes

EVENTS

fire a riffle

*

touch the sun

THE BEAR

his paw up
to the sun

BEAR DANCE

snort
snort
berries

THE PUMPKIN

has a lake into it

THE BEADS

seen in my eyes-
with many colors
