LICHEN GREEN
lichens
on bark, stone, henge—
whether before the pastures
on the path to the ocean
or in the realm of
the ancient Alpine storm gods,
inhabiting
a place of crossing,
a passage or boundary or wall,
the sanctum
of the hoary apple tree goddess
just past the laundry, kitchens,
where soup and earthy bread
are shared with all comers
