Ambient, naviarhaiku242 sevenism
Pine Needles / Shoshin --naviarhaiku242

harmonica: lots of quick filtering, low notes for the shrine, high for the pine needles.

The pine shadow falls on the tent wall
& I see the shrine
as if for the first time

In the 50’s and 60’s, while living in Manhattan, she founded Poet’s Press and co-founded the New York Poet’s Theatre. She’s written over 40 books, which you can find at goodreads.com/author/show/3138....Diane_di_Prima.
