MsJesus : 30X40” Watercolor on Canvas   There are fences Defining a space A pump is in the creek noise And fountains of water-spray across Neat rows A river watering the garden flowed from Eden   I was alone on this walk The man said,        This is now bone of my bones        and flesh of my flesh;        she shall be called woman,        for she was taken out of man.   The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.   The road between the fields Between the fences was lined With wild plants of all kinds And a tree grew there With heavy moss Grey-green hanging In the sunlight   Reason and Intuition Roles and Being Sun and Moon Eagle sails across the surface of a waxing moon The cross of Peter was nailed in upside down In the morning   A ritual fire burns in the evening A wooden figure of a goddess with a serpent A clay man cracks in the coals Ashes to ashes we all fall down The itsy bitsy spider Goes up the spout again Down goes the rain And it’s green hills And the wind cries Mary Into the sails Of Sunday boats on Monterey Bay   “Are you getting up now? it’s 7:20.”
