The Intimacy

The Intimacy - Mount Eerie

The only reason

I'm moved seeing clouds

And hills mingle

Is because

The intimacy

Of the world

Otherwise

Stays hidden

Even though I know

It's there

In animals calling

In the cave overflowing

In the food

I've built on

In the song of the bat

And in rotting bodies unfolding

I am touched each time

I can see

Hand holding

Mist

Married to branches

Married to me

With my eyes

Stopping my work

For a moment

To say

What a generous place is unveiling here

We have enough
