Are You Listening

It is late in the world
the heroes have all been tamed
my knife is dull, no blood to give
but do not listen to me

My tears look for clouds
to carry them forth
drowning the earth
but do not listen to me

You are the whet stone
and the blade to cleave
truth from the stars
will we listen to you

He holds my hand below the drought
his voice is multitudes

The day has come
raise us before the years
make dull the stones
can you hear us

You were the guides
we are the journey
trees grow in our tracks
can you hear us

We offer feathers
for your minds to fly
beyond fear and greed
can you hear us
​
I let go, and where they walk, a forest rises
are you listening

    Harilaos sees poetry as a form of sorcery because it involves the magical binding of words that allow us to say the unsayable and to speak to experiences that are both universal and personal at the same time.
