Caregivers Among Us
To receive care
that best meets your needs,
and also,
by the way,
everyone else's too,
we look first
to where and when we have given such care
since our original longest reborn journey
down Mom's birth canal,
prepared just in time for our...

Hope For Respect
My thought for this day,
although still early,
is respect for hope.
Respect for our interdependence
and respect for our challenging differences,
important, yet hopefully not as powerful
as our interdependent love for healthy life.
Yesterday
I noticed a brown cardboard box

Monofilamania

lovingly.
It sharks,
unpeels more gut more quickly

in all those years of lazy inches
in and out:
casting,
winding in and playing out,
hardly fishing, rarely catching
anything

Surviving Your Own Life
My father and I did not share all that much,
More like passing a truck on the road
Parent’s squabbles I overheard offered me clues
And at times I caught glimpse of his load.
His freight always sealed with...

Ballad
You Without Your Breeze
Wounded you
with your warm breezy breath
reflecting on EarthMother's trees.
Relationships,
even between breezes and trees,
are always political,
include a power play exchange
to influence bodies or minds,
with a preference for both

Parallelismus Membrorum
I Felt the Earth
I Felt the Earth
There in the valley reaching for the sun
Our younger days were such fun
Though the struggle to be

The valley walls were so tall
That I would fear they would fall

The Invention of Zero
Zero.
By which nothing is divided.
No zero
no negative
no opposite
no hope
no Adam, no apple, no marriage, no morning.
No mirror
no knowledge
no God, no soul, no ear lobe, no Iliad, no Odyssey.
No universe
no black hole
no zodiac
no hero
no mission, no...

Crawling Toward My Grave
I'm barely crawling toward my grave
And lucky to have come this far!

Or specimen in someone's jar.

Slowly you begin to understand
Through falls...

Surrender to meager me
Built up, give what I am
Liberated to fall and vanish where it...
