“Rootrill” I hope that you will forgive me for posting an eleven minute song in the twenty first century. Mostly, I hope that you enjoy it.
arc contain glow
seen through scene
bois d arc meteorite
slanting even evening light
ancient bone star dust
deere ghost sheep goat add straw and mix well
cross turn
years unfurl in the eternal present
young hands dextrous
core sample of stored solar energy
made vacant for gold
quince roots herbs leg
reamed tapered tapped turned twisted sunk fitted formed around
concentrate earth line essence
absorb the sun and use it for life
pull transfer motion
dividing even unto cambium and xylem
layers and layers
learn purpose practicing discipline
stop motion
frozen movement osage root as it once reached
three forms of light
hand in hand you who once swayed
ancient releasing story
the turning of light upon the solar bank countless voices scratch and turn
golden hands once full wait for wisdom
new moon forest window
tall down cut stack turn stack down
erth-maker here we bend here we grow
establish converge into order dust scratcher
welcome the new bird and fare thee well
Spout Root Spoon Route
Posted on April 8, 2014
Black walnut spoon with carving and ebonizing. It is for sale if you would like it.
Osage Orange long handled spoon. It too is for commerce.
Here is a little of that walnut spoon before it was finished. The black or ebonizing is made by brushing a little bit of vinegar that has iron oxide (rust) dissolved in it. It reacts with tannic acid in wood and turns black on contact.
Now that our does have freshened with the wholesome milk of provision we have soap abounding. It’s good stuff.
