Becoming
05.4.2014
Begin this day at dawn.
Pashupatinath Hindu cremation ceremony along Bagmati River.
Shiva is the destroyer and creator.
Wood pyres. A woman kisses her shrouded husband goodbye.
Light his fire.
Fire is the beginning and end.
Fire is your rosé flame.
Stir his bones.
His ashes flutter with death and mortality.
Silence. Solemnity. Serenity. Grounded and transient. Flowers. Offerings.
Glorious color dancing fire.
