Written January 25th, 2026 When the sky turns redInseams of the next world stretchTo thread in the chanceWhere endless springs of Her soul returnMother Earth’s bounty will below,knowingly When thirst for the innocents’ bloodshedis not enough to become God,the war dogs will lose their heads,biting them off cleanly themselvesclamped by their sharp teeth. The sky’s softer flame burns bright and free,smoldering away that which isnot truth.Many choices are then made in Good clarity,a clearing in the meadow to start anew.Thank you: Theme music: Acoustic Folk Acoustic Guitar: Acoustic Folk on Pixabay [https://pixabay.com/music/acoustic-group-acoustic-folk-acoustic-guitar-138361/] My podcast is now edited entirely by my friend Alejandro Bernard, my dear friend from Ithaca NY.

Episode Four: So What if You're a Sad Girl

WARNING: This episode is about death and losing pets and people we love- if you are feeling extra senstive lately, save this for another time when you are ready. Join us as Lisa tells some stories about death. Yes, death. That thing we are all so very afraid of. And grief, something else we try to actively avoid. But on this day, we made some tea and DID NOT avoid it! We considered sadness in all its forms and in my view alchemized the experience. Because the only way we get to be here is by experiencing love, and the loss of who we love. A sacred contract with the universe that honestly sucks, but is the absolute soul of being alive. Lisa was such a delight to have on Tales Unearthed, her insights and raw honesty were an inspiration to all of us struggling with these same things. I hope you enjoy our conversation as well as Lisa’s beautiful photography linked below. If you should need someone to take photos, OR a delicious recipe (she also bakes!) Check her out!
