Matariki is

It is not what Papatuanuku can do for you

But what you can do to help Papatuanuku

The pressure of our hands upon the earth

laying a predatory cat to rest under a thankful kohekohe seedling

chickens nesting a clutch of fertile eggs

your eyes full of the long summer

amongst the warrior trees flexing in the changing wind

when we walk down the road

as a different shade of sky folds over

and the blue distance draws near shadows

of clouds over the oceans heart beating

with the velocity of our dreams

and certain rivers swollen by misfortune

accelerating towards tipping points

with the scent of history lingering

like the fires of discontent

when we know everything is global, everything

in the turbid flux of slow falling fine humid rain
