cinnamon_sandalwood_clove
ever dumbening grit and fire climb from earth
warm and calm and astringent
rich soil becomes oil healing
body and mind

shifting red and brown hard
ground to powder releasing
a dry glow wafting

nostrils widen - a net -
capture the scent,
the scent traveling inches
to the mind,
the mind traveling miles
to the years,
the years of childhood's
december and old age's spring

Mahayana even within rudest country solitudes one will find incense smoldering before wayside images
endless days drifting i have lost my thoughts
slipping into this empty space
sweet allure
beauty’s face
many experiences of travel
strange impressions of sound as well as of sight remain
associated in my own memory of cinnamon_sandalwood_clove
vast silent shadowed avenues leading to weird old shrines
mossed flights of worn steps ascending to temples that smolder above the clouds
joyous tumults of festival nights
incantations of ghostlyclove”dness draws you deeper into me, but ill never verbalize such shrouded moons...
on they hang beneath sheeted funeral-trains gliding by in glimmer of lanterns;
living on within me as visions of desolate little graves marked only by threads of blue smoke ascending
and transforming as murmurs of household prayer in fisherman's huts on far wild coasts
remembered by simplehearts in the hour of prayer to Amida, the Lord of Immeasurable Light

lifes little Eternal Treasures

In_Bloom Memories of smells from happier times in the canyon
Through the years I've reproduced these scents in various stops I've made, trying to make "home"
Mostly what comes is tears because there is no "home", nothing to hold
Never really was
