Their acid blistered paint work but it...

because if I appreciate where this narrative journey will end,
then I probably will find we start off with similar questions

Many of you live
humbly and heartily
patriotically and industriously
nutritiously and faithfully
in Western and Southern States,

United in this time of shrinking reservoirs,
dying rivers,
hurricaned coastal residents

Displaced by floods,
invasive mold,
voracious rot and rats,

Barren top soil,
failing electrical networks,
drought,
inhumane heat,
decimated forests

Bereft...

Moment to moment, all moments entwined,
I feel the touch of magnetism divine,
the source of which, by mind is not divined
so to know the truth, with heart I align.
With this preamble, let’s step back in time,

No need to worry”

Transient and therefore necessarily unreal like a...

Back in our preverbal day
of healthy regenerating time,
indigenous wisdom
pursued peak experiences
of cooperative pleasure,
deep co-empathic embrace.

Sometimes,
especially when this pleasure was sustained,
euphoric,
ejaculatory
and reverberating in resonant cycles
of deep wombed ecstasy,
procreation happened,
preferably in the spring
when new life is more...

Both of my daughters 
have married and moved on
both now have lives 
and homes of their own

Love's Duet
by Rick Rucker

Does your heart, to you, sound like a spinet?
Ever louder, by the minute?

My diagnosis, sad to say,
Someone has stolen your heart away!

What's that you say,
Inside your chest it still does stay?

How can...

I have an internally repetitious desire,
need,
want,
to seek reassurance

Not so much about,
Am I the fairest/ugliest of Them all?

But, lately,
more maturely,
rationally,
calmly and yet curiously,
compassionately,

Am I healthy?
How am I healthy/unhealthy?
spiritually/mentally
naturally/physically
politically/personally

Meanwhile,
nonverbal rightbrain gut-felt instincts
follow a similar light toward healthy...
