His labor is a chant,

His idleness a tune;

Oh, for a bee's experience

Of clovers and of noon!

Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons

I have stepped into streams
As softly as a child
In a graveyard.
Ripples explode
Where skin meets water
And disperse on bated breath
As the morning sun burns away
The gravestone's ghostly sheen.

across the foamy heads of breakers
through alders
along roads ground to gravel
by ice fleeing a late Spring
into the company
of creatures better suited for water than land
and strangers offering parentage and brotherhood
to the wanderer
lost and found
at home in the world

This past May, on a beautiful evening at Locust Grove,
I had the opportunity to break into wedding videography at the wedding of my friends Grant & Madeline Corley.

Many thanks to my sweet friend Lang, I loved watching him work as he did a beautiful job taking their photos.
Congratulations, Corleys, on a beautiful wedding that I feel blessed to have documented.

pression

Pression

I have pressed myself;

Shoulderblades and footbones

Levered between a rock

And a hard place.

Like a canary in a coal mine,

I have sensed the closing in,

Felt the pressure,

Sang,

And flown away with a flash

Of yellow wings.

seam.

a seam is a union

separate parts become one piece

where two meet

there is a knitting-together, a bonding

a knot tied against severance

Homeland:

seam is the second of a series of short films I am making.

Homeland
Endeavor is the first of a series of short films.
