seems north and south
while here in America
everything seems east and west
(except our heads are east and west
while our hearts are north and south –
the head wishing to rule
the heart wanting to embrace)
but I think of east and west
as the children of the wars
between north and south
taken in the largest sense
the glaciated and unglaciated eras
the great moving forces
of our beginnings still
active in every breeze
