Celeste Neuhaus - Reaping The Sown (Solo Performance)

Final Performance in the In Observance series

Reaping the Sown is a guided ritual performance reclaiming the traditions of Thanksgiving.
Come gather with the Scarecrow, Saturn, and the Grim Reaper at the crossroads of Excess and Abundance.
In offering to the land that is both stolen and stolen from, we synchronize with the cosmic cycles of the seasons, and share this final harvest as a celebratory act of defiance.

Feast your eyes
On the head of the table.

The scar tissue
The warning label.

Carve the truck nuts
Preserve and pickle.

Horn of plenty
Shopping cart
Sickle.

The corn goes
Pop
The inner tyrant.

The slingshot
The Tech giant.

Thrash the monocrop
Gaia’s revolt.

Unseat the father
Lightning bolt.

Gobble gobble
Vomit the stone.

Shuck the husk
Strip the bone.

the debt forgiveness
of denatured soil.

A watched pot
still comes to a boil.

the Daddy issue
melancholy of decay.

Say grace to the Furies
turning night into day
