The Litany 04:31
I serve my master My master serves my soul My soul is perpetuated in the service of 3 goals I have 9 masters I own 23 crows I've seen 49 journeys that no one else knows I have no master I have numbers I have feelings

Sometimes I get the devil in my eyes Otherwise he steps aside Cannot predict when he’ll call my name I call him my brother just the same Sometimes the devil slips into my mind He’s in my body all the time No one else that I can blame He’s my own devil to tame Sometimes the devil’s hand is in mine I can’t say I mind I think I’ll learn to live with him Livin’ in the light and livin’ in sin Sometimes I get the devil in my eyes Sometimes his evil plans are mine Deliver me from me or him

Up ‘til now we've only got a glimpse of what we actually weren’t seeing and then it revealed itself

Silphium Blooms Kalamazoo, Michigan

In a landscape of ragged concrete, a resurgent flora is dominated by rail-yard weeds, foxtail, tumbleweed, bugloss. Still, life is not willing to stir. A goldfinch appears from the glare of a low sun and mournfully weaves into and out of view. Where a generation of loess has settled under the slow upheaval of asphalt, a drop of dew coalesces, a seed imbibes. A taproot swells, the sun, the dream. ... more
