Back in the Element 🏜
Checking in once again from Bisbee , AZ. Here is a poem I wrote about our process, I hope it gives you life today:
The Dome
So we set off on a hero's journey
Beyond the Lavender Pit, amidst the Copper Queen in her Pythian Castle-
We listened to the memories.
Echoing through those plundered mines and valleys of scarred earth.
And so the poets, the artists, chefs, and builders traveled beyond to create a new kingdom.
Step by step, we arrived.
to the stillness of this desert
Where we could finally hear our hearts.
To Respond
to a world that was never given
To remember
the capacity we hold in our hands.
In the shadows of three mountains,
We built our own.
Upward spirals of clays and sands.
Our prayer for monsoons were answered by an Iron God- the Water Truck; quenching our thirst for connection and stability.
Divided in these borderlands, We are all equal under the sun- united in our dustiness, our dreams ascending with the dome.
Finding courage to set our own compass,
We did it together.
