Limestone

Amy Martin


That night beating frozen fists into pastures of snow
When not even she could be with me
When I'd gone past exploding
Into cold drifts of desolation, I sank face first
Hoping to suffocate in the rage and aloneness

I don't save the earth
The earth saves me

And countless afternoons with the city rushing past me
My body was concrete, my mind the freeway
But steady steady lay the lake
Pounding out its rhythm
I am your heartbeat, these stones are your bones

I don't save the earth
The earth saves me

When you sell her off you make me a whore
When you foul her waters you poison my blood
It's not just political, it's sacrilegious
I don't spit in your sanctuary, don't chop down my
forest

My childhood hilltop, my home below
Somewhere to look down from, some way to see out
I went to find limestone and an unconscious prayer
To lose myself in sumac, to find the one thing that was always there

I don't save the earth
The earth saves me
