Rebirth in Earthing

by Kenneth Vincent Walker


My need to feel the
Coolness of soft
Grass beneath my

Naked feet as I so
Distinctly sense a
Tingling of Mother

Earth's electricity
Surging, coursing,
Throughout my

Whole entire being.
For without shoes
For insulation my

Soul is connected
Directly to Earth's
Electromagnetic

Field and I am now
One with my home
Planet the third orb

Encircling the Sun.

Kenneth Vincent Walker is a "New Formalist" poet, spoken word artist, performer and author of Borderline Absurd (An Exercise in Rhyme and Reason), published by Poem Sugar Press/ Community Arts Ink, 2015, and available on Amazon. Also he is published in numerous online magazines, journals and blogs.

Kenneth has been labeled a "wordsmith" and has read, recited and performed his eloquent and eclectic brand of poetry reminiscent of the Golden Age and the Romantic Era with a Beatnik to modern sensibility and twist at coffeehouses, bookstores and outdoor festivals throughout the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States.

Lastly, Kenneth's voice may be heard on Spotify in his short yet chilling podcasts of 'Noir Poetry' set to music exhibiting a darker side highly influenced by The Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock and the writings of the immortal Edgar Allan Poe.
