Poem of the Month



Fay Canyon Mandala



A map of wild footprints:

the deer people

show me the way.



In the center:

upright totem

reaching toward father sky.



In the first ring:

four stones

grounding to mother earth.



In the second ring:

eight twigs

branching like living antlers.



In the third ring:

circle drawn in red dirt

encompassing the one within all.



Beyond suffering!
