Orpheus builds the fire
Cross Currents, Wntr, 2004 by K.V. Wilt
Cutting cedar into four-foot logs he envisions his spike-driving father who came to Quebec City from the bogs of Donegal. He lays the thigh-thick cedar east to west over the raked coals that form the platform of the pyramid. His father, Fergus, was forty years old when they stole his frozen body, hid it from his Ojibway wife, and got their priest. He takes the nineteen cold stones from the soul of the lodge to the logs and invites the sacred powers as he puts seven in a wheel. He stacks the other twelve up to a peak. In his voice he hears his father speak.
