Maxine Buren DDTTDCfiS By CARL HALL The fractured rock vertebraes, heavy with moss, inert to motion, congealed to time,, stare from the summer weary hill of grass. Rim ming each rock, the universe merges into dust equivalent. Un spuraed the moss transmits the days of earth to the rocks and the dust soon has a plaything in the grass where no grief is felt or heard. Life flourishes about the grey numbed sleep, summer senses are reacting to heat, seeds are seeking carriers, man, beast or wind. In the moss the rocks would pulverize, while seed ovums in varied shape and color ' wither into summer with heady umbel, fingered raceme, or spvike. The seeds hold summer delight while man' ponders in his tragic sense of life and rock holds conference with eternal night In the pursuit of seed for earth, where there is no anticipation of death but only the boundless, nnending river of time, only sound erects death's living mon uments, span markers not grave markers of a season. Markers not of living life, as man so desig nates it by his dreams and his memories, but being life, seem ingly meaningless, yet mean ingful. There is a rattle in the vetch; the wild pea, the camas have a score to keep that like a j snake shakes a warning heard to! earth and treading human feet. ( Derive a summer from a sum mer, a seed from a seed; rosary of time where a space for man is never found wanting. Man who, severed from the cord by reason of existing, not living, except in scattered moments, feels the con sciousness of his span and his dy ing. Bound by the ropes of his fears, held down by his hates, scattered by his indecisions-, his lack of whole vision, he, unlike a seed, is heard to himself for he knows of his falling. Like a Seed Man, distillation and concen trate of seeds; pessimistic as a seed can never be, questions his course, his living span, his course or blessing upon the face of the land. Man never just falls, he suf fers in and with his falling, nev er tct bear or know the truth that seeds would speak except in his hopes and faith and like a seed, in his passing. Seeds would speak the ': truth of their sacrament, the revelation that seeds picked, up in the sun and scattered on the myriad breaths of the season. There are no seeds foreign to the universe, no seed that does not have its place, or its space of time and eternity. A seed is never over whelmed or confused, or lost, hence none is ever insignificant. Every seed is durable even when it has ceased to be, hence no seed is aimless, each has been dei fied, even when it has been de nied. New Beginning Each seed is a new beginning, but an old ending and yet, a transfiguration. It is a pin-point of a varied carpet, yet a synthe sis of existence fractured in ev ery moment of its f pan. A seed is an abstraction, yet a fact, it is the word as well as the- deed. It is time, yet a moment that is al ways leaving. Man is a seed, seed is a man, and the land is in between. Why all our doubt and despair with man and the world. It is not as if the land and God did not care; a field of grain illu strates this truth every day. The seeds have long since said their prayers; man has been hard of hearing of late. The Better Bedding j Store j CLOSING Mon., Aug. 24 j for Vacation . . .
