tahtonkah

i heard him
cleary
yelling from the
the bottom of the water cliff
smal but great man
big hands
and long white hair
old of appearance
but youn g
of heart
i heard him
but he told me that this was years ago
but i was hearing it now and the desparity
brought me to my knees but
i hit harder and harder
until we were yelling together and we were
goin g deepr into his age until
it was the boy
creator
mischevoius
and lightening
eyes
and soft skin
laughing and
running over the hills
just made under
his feet
