Premium Member Spring
I felt like it was coming, not through buds breaking open, but through a softness in the air, like a soft napkin forgotten on the chest of an old icon. No one announced it not the wind, not the birds, not the old woman at the corner window, threading her days together with a broken needle. This spring has no footsteps, no voice, only the faint scent of resin and...

Dropping Flowers, Blades Of Grass, And Us Like flowers droop but refuse to die from the heat, like tanned fields subsumed in the struggle to survive and keep the flow of transpiration, like the trodden blades of grass pushing through sidewalk holes to capture the cosmic energy that fuels them onward the victory they seek to be free, we, like all of nature, must continue to travel the jubilee road...

Premium Member The Blade of Grass
The rains are here, relentless as ever The grass blade is excited like never The season of hibernation is over Swirling in water, as a duck dumpling in sauce The blade of grass has come home A rich gourmet of moisture and nutrients Thrusts the roots, taking its journey southward And the shoots going northwards The grass blade has taken...

You get this instant feedback that you have to own and lean hard into. The being present to adjust, the internalised mechanisms of performance—the ‘liveness’—is the most exciting thing about sports.

Laying In The Grass Alone
I just want to lie down In this grassy field, do nothing I just want to listen to my body Reflect myself, see the sky Observe the clouds passing my eyes Hear the crickets sound, the wind that howls Lonely, yes it is, but lying is good It's value to me, it keeps me relax It's magical, beautiful, full in its horizontality....

snake in de grass
Smooth with his talk Slipped through the shadows, a snake on the walk. He called me an old fowl laughed in my face Wrote poems about me then left not a trace Said,I wanted wood but let’s tell it right He sparked that fire then fled from the light A man with a stroke in his head His words like riddles half-truths left unsaid. An engineer,...
