An Evening Line 


In a longed-for imaginary
navigation becomes evolution 
story omen, music its own
 
adversity. This veld 
at once tenuous and noble 
arrives in verses 

on the one neither 
orchestral nor geographic
grass as instrument
 
landscape as song 
Here is your invitation 
to gather under years 

of native ancestry, of aridity 
and thorn-scrub, an incanted return
here the ostinato, holding to 

the natural between ear and hear
in the silent, walking breath of a woman 
and her word from which we all descend.
