autumn benediction
around here around  Victoria Promenade in Edmonton everyone is strongly impressed by the transformation of the landscape Jay died his hair golden and orange and I crossed the street to the river valley last night to be blessed again by the nondescript sky and I watched the moon goddess draped in a transparent orange fabric woven and sheered by humanity's dreams

my mind genuflected and the sky message tonight was that the darkness of mortality is exalted like the most brilliant indulgent summer day
