From “Elemental Gratitude” by Eric Gansworth in the June 2018 Native Poets issue of Poetry.
[image: First image is a drawing of a round plaque mounted on a stone wall with a fish or an eel curled in a circle and eating its own tail, encircling an image of a purple human figure with concentric red hearts. Below the plaque is a pool of water and a small fire; above it, a lightning storm can be seen through a hole in the wall. Second image is a drawing of two people in profile looking to the right. There are what appears to be atomic or celestial models in the top right and lower left corners. Above the people, a brain is split open down the middle like a geode and a string of steam or smoke connects the two halves. Top right above the brain is text that reads, “The Corpus Callosum allows for communication between the seat of reason and the land of DREAMS.”]
