Solo Performance
It had been a hellish week.

my lonely and tired AfricanAmerican husband
told me, as gently as possible,
that what I had hoped was a temporary separation
is to be extended into perpetuity.
This separation had been scheduled to...

Summer Reforesting School
YinYin,
what did you most appreciate
learning at school this summer?
Probably in Community ReForesting.
You know, the EcoTherapy Class
I took
instead of eating lunch,
using "lunch" loosely
as synonymous with edible,
or at least tangentially related to edibility.
Oh yes, that one.
What stands...

Let Us Speak Clearly
Let me speak clearly with you
dear religious and atheist Trumpians,
A fool in executive office
is a leader
only in foolish directions.
A rich thief
is the worst thief
as survival motives
are absent,
so self-thrival motives
remain pick your pocket rampant.
An intellectual prostitute

Autumn Atonement
Face to the sky,
Breath of the Caribbean
Woven with earthy Autumn,
Saturates the alveoli of my lungs,
Pouring raw impulses into the neurons of
My pleasure centers, so triggering a myriad of
Memories ... the demurring requiem to summer tide...

Leaving CoEmpathic Stems
Imagine yourself as a tree
with a leaf named Yang
connected to a branching twig named Yin,
having a sappy conversation
about EarthMother's sacred trees
of life
and dormant death.
Do you think yintegrity's twig would want to correct...

Safe Home
SafeHome is not so much a real place
as a destiny longed for
on our lifetime journey toward dynamic well-being,
too healthily robust to fear growing homeless and friendless.
SafeHome is not an unchanging Paradise,
statically without resonantly changing,
slow-turning nutritious...

Hidden Undomesticated Spirits
On this desecrating Earth
Nature's BusinessAsUsual
is industriously
and perversely
secluded from Spirit--
naturality from spirituality,
climate health/pathology from internal weather events,
humane hope for health from divine faith in eternal wealth,
In our profane wealth-hoarding EgoGame,
short-term fatuous Win/Lose natural strategies
are loss-postponing futile...

Her Attention
She was born a little different,
In fact “she” came to understand that “she” was “she” much later,
Some usual description of physical changes came to make her a full “she”,
As an adult she clamored for attention,

Greensanctuary Intentions
Earth's multi-tribal sanctuary,
like any flexible multi-generational home,
like elastically resilient residents

three-family brownstone,
or a centennial extended family farm,
positively grows gratitude
for HereNow integrity
of further co-operative covenanted potential ways
and means to restore Paradise peace intent

Love With Benefits
Could you love
an old white redneck
with HIV,
inhaling too much medicine?
Could you love him
if he were able to listen
without judging,
but commiserating,
curious about nuances,
finding dark humor
transcending rumors
of ego’s timorous tumors
and climatic anthro-terrifying tremblers?
Could you love a sad...

A Distinctive Lexicon of Discipline
I can’t believe it’s weekend already,
the busy week has hardly been noticed
as if it were like yesterday when,
I started tidying up my room upstairs.
Other commitments rolled in on weekdays;
pastoral ministry, running...

Waiting For You
I squandered my future,
my past present expended.
Unsteady steps protracted,
seconds and hours not tended.
My thoughts were not pondered,
delusional perspectives un-debated.
So many of my mistakes,
could have been anticipated.
Was it my unfounded fear,
that informed my preoccupations?
I...

Each day, the inevitable draws closer
Our time is measured by the number of days and nights
How we’ve chose to live in each of those moments
Has become the summation; the totality of our lives

Smile But
This isle doth smile
But breath doth draw.
Whilst talk across vast tables, does
See our dignity, destiny and diversity
Slide out one door.
This isle doth smile
But furrow its brow.
Whilst a forgotten empire border just
Clothes us as clowns, crooks...

In Tune With What Matters
What a day with all the errands to run!
having other commitments to attend to;
it’s really busy; it’s saturated with preoccupations;
a hefty day that no one can just ignore thus far.

October Fest
Homes so recently abandoned
for Sunday swims and picnics
have become indoor respites
from the restless chill of change.
Secure, still days have vanished,
with hazy meadows humming.
Fireflies have met their end,
replaced with jack-o'-lanterns.
Now forewarning breezes,
stealthy, crisp, and vibrant,
pierce preoccupations,
uncovering...

How Could You Not Notice Me
I saw you with some other friends
At Methodist park merrily masquerading
As someone incognito on a clear day
Full of Sun.
How could you not notice me?
You see I'm the one
Filled with razzmatazz,
Dazzling pizzazz...

Fragments 2
Prismatic dewy blanket
Velvet green grass;
Random footprint patterns
Grocery list
Things to stock up;
Empty pantry
Invitation cards
Huge mailing list;
Big banquet crowd
Pockets of plenty
Diamonds in the midst;
Sparkling surprises
Car in fine state
Good as brand new;
Seven years already
Moon glow tonight
Ascendant prospects;
Dreams do...
