Great Wave off Kanagawa Katsushika Hokusai. Japan.
Night Dive
Plankton rise toward the full moon
spread thin on Wakaya’s surface.
Manta rays’ great curls of jaw
scoop backward somersaults of ocean
in through painted caves of their
mouths, out
through sliced gills. Red sea fans
pulse. The leopard shark
lounges on a smooth ramp of sand,
skin jeweled with small hangers-on.
Pyramid fish point the way to the
surface.
Ninety feet down, blue ribbon eels cough,
their mouths neon cautions.
Ghost pipefish curl in the
divemaster’s palm.
Soft corals unfurl rainbow polyps,
thousands
of mouths held open to night.
Currents’ communion—giant clams
slam shut wavy jaws, send
shivers of water. Christmas tree
worms
snap back, flat spirals tight,
living petroglyphs against the night.

Kin 183: Blue Magnetic Night
I unify in order to dream
Attracting intuition
I seal the input of abundance
With the magnetic tone of purpose
I am guided by my own power doubled.
Everything is contained within the vastness of space, and within the human body we are cultivating evolution in the form of the Earth Wizard.*
