Five movies. Five books.
Three myths or fairytales.
Ten friends. Four homes.
Six subjects you want
to live long enough to study.
Seven foods to cook for family.
What horrified your parents?
What made them scold you?
What was forbidden,
what ways of life?
How did you know?
What did they do?
When did you cease
to be a child?
How did you finally
become an adult?
List fortunate accidents.
Lucky breaks.
Ideas. Causes.
Institutions you challenged.
Enemies you fought.
Vows you made.
Vows you have broken.
Tell me when
you told your first lie.
How have you been hurt?
How have you been helped?
How have you helped in return?
How have you helped in return?
Just as language is a carrier of meanings, a tincture is a liquid carrier for the healing components of an herb. What tinctures have you applied to get back into flow?
