with kindest regards to dan who has been kind and generous in
unraveling my post. thank you. and my only comment is that this is
what the journey looks like to me.... the journey of awareness and
hope and resolution, a journey of spirit that constellations allow us
to see. it is deeply personal. need i say? shared with love, anni

Anni's beautiful poem:
dark night
no boat
no sail
not compass
not star
where who but i endure
this pounding pummel
blackened sea
aurora
the sky fainting
glimmers hope from
the mist despair
stray oar has
brushed me hard
and for it i pull
believing it to be
more
the dawn
not coming
not coming
and i yearn in
silent screams
when
when
and then
amidst the darkness
deeper and foul
small boat
knocking at me
bumping me
pitches and down
without my hand
without my foot
with mindfulness undone
inside this boat
i am
yet
years of nights
and months
in misty torment
cluster on
i have not slept
yet still i dream
of minions
who have passed
for them i am
for them i yield
from torment and deceit
so shimmers dawn
horizon nears
soft light
envelops haze
great tree unfolds
above the shore
with roots
unhurling time
the dawn
the day
the stern grates sand
my foot embraces land
i run
i gasp
i flail
i clutch the knarled branch
my fate
sweet soul-filled wind
sun scraped on leaf
i see
let be
it be
and
murmur mama's rhymes
