For now. Maybe for always.
EarthSinger is here.
This is what she/he says.
We are dreaming this.
Mountains. Yes, it is in the mountains. My family walks. We are a family taking a walk. The trail is steep but we walk easily. There is no hurry. A meadow. A plateau now. Tall grasses. Farmland. Our farm. The mountains are now in the distance. Suddenly a bird of tremendous size swoops down and lands not 10 feet from us. It is an eagle. With the head of a golden retriever. Well, a head somewhat more dog-like than bird-like, but still it is clearly a bird and clearly an eagle. Eagle/dog walks along with us and allows us to pet it on its soft feathery/furry head. This bird, this combination of a thoroughly wild inhabitant of ethereal heights together with domestic pet, fills us with joy, with love even. The eagle simply lifts off the ground with a strength of wing nearly unimaginable and is gone into the sky. Some 70 or 80 feet into the air it becomes a tree, roots, trunk, branches, an oak suspended in midair, every leaf finely etched against a cloudless sky. The branches are supporting a boulder of immense weight. The effect is of mammoth density and heaviness floating weightless.
EarthSinger is here now.
We are dreaming this.
We are walking the path of this our dream world into the heart of earth.
Earth's heart is our heart. We are listening to the earth breathing as
we breathe. Our inhalations and exhalations are one breath. We are walking
the path of dreaming into the heart of the earth. Into the heart of earth’s
dream. She is spinning our dream into music. We are breathing earth's breath.
Inhalation
and exhalation. Breathing in and breathing out. Earth’s heart beats.
Our hearts beat. We are walking the path of the dream of the earth.

EarthSinger says this.
But where does the chipmunk come into this? Scurrying across the meadow. Storing up seeds for the winter. Cheeks bulging. Two white stripes down the length of his back down the length of his tail. Chipmunk, do you know you are in this dream about the heart of the earth about rivers heart of heart of earth and living waters? Yes? Chipmunk?
