“Of earth and wheat I am and as I close in
your fire kindles itself
inside me and the rocks
and flour ignite.
That’s why my heart
expands and rises
into bread for your mouth to devour,
and my blood is wine poured for you.
You and I are the land full of fruit.
Bread, fire, blood, and wine
make up the earthly love that sears us.”

“Never alone, with you, earth. With you, the sea, my life, all I am, all I give and everything I sing, the substance of this love, the earth, the sea, bread, a life.”
