still image from indigo eli's poetry film soft ground ... the background shows a leaf littered forest floor . lots of oranges and golds. on the left sunshine glows in from the top and a two tree trunks stand . one very thin . one thick . on the right the forest scene shows a fallen branch or tree root resting on top of the orange and red autumn leaves a grassy rise in the land with 8 or more thin trees standing on top .. in the centre is a vertical strip of crisp white paper .. a pair of Caucasian arms poking through from behind .. the hands are facing each other . touching at the wrists with fingers outstretched .. along the bottom are white words over the darker leaf litter that read: this warm fertile hold
