Into the forest 21

Into the forest 21 by Helene Kippert

Into the forest 21

Charcoal drawing, photo and Apophysis layers

Gaia – she is rising

they shovelled her screams into the pit of silence
and told her nothing was wrong
but she is waking

they told her beauty was skin shaven clean
and denuded her of her undergrowth
but she is remembering

encased in her corset of asphalt, they dressed her
in roads and cities for their pleasure
but she is rising

she is rising like the mist on a clear, cold morning
millennia of sleep fall away from her like grieving
in the light of her regard nothing keeps its meaning
Gaia – she is rising

Into the forest 21 belongs to the following groups:

Gaia - The Living Planet, Lesbian and Bi-Women's Art, Spiritual Art and The Artistic Nude

    This is gorgeous, Helene… And it really expresses the feeling of the poem beautifully. You can sense an anger in mother nature… Kind of like that saying, “God is coming, and she is pissed.”

    Beautifull image, well written words to go with it. I do believe Gaia is rising and our way of living and the way we treat one another can determine how she will do it.

    Wonderful writing Helene! I am sure Gaia will shrug us off like an irritating itch…..we are so unimportant but we seem to think we are essential to all life…...some of us are in for a cold awakening.
