Sitting on her clutch of eggs agitatedly growling. She plucks out her own feathers- a warm belly for incubation. Depriving herself of nourishment for days. Her eyes glaze over, crazed. Maternal sacrifices run deep through her hollow bones.

Mother hen
Dear star, neighbor of my broken, but adamant  singing heart, All I wished here in this life disguised as a journey man Trekking through the meandering wild, forest paths, Extended moors and misty, dangerous marshes, Was rooted in the faith that we would meet and connect With our inner fire and get to gather together our band The cosmic adventurers at large,each in a disguise  willed. I kept on searching for the parchment, the papyrus scroll,that has The secret missions of our lives encrypted, in an ancient script. Yesterday at night a thunderbolt told the truth,like in days of yore In pouring rain standing on the river side,wonder in my eyes,I got The glimpse of a cauldron, floating down in the surging current, That has all the answers we seek all though this journey fantastic. As if by magic, or is it a plan we never know the karmic reason, The scroll of papyrus came flying and sat on my hand, like happened To many before us, I am sure, and I guess, knew nothing to do with it . Come home soon, let's learn from this scroll of man, who we are And the cryptic code  will tell us our kinship with all lives around.
