Ohhhhh...
Please
Hear me out
At ease,
I hear your victory shout!!!
Ooooo I-I-I-I...

Let's start at the beginning
of your ecotherapeutic day.
I'm talking today with Fr. Time,
Earth's only fully self-ordained ecotherapist,
and recently published author of

Pequot River Land TrustOnce,

conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted

Why LifeWhy does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,
some longer,
some shorter
before naked covered night.
Why life?

Let Us Speak ClearlyLet me speak clearly with you
dear religious and atheist Trumpians,
A fool in executive office

A rich thief

Bipartisan DissonanceWhen oppositional cognitive dissonance
deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time
to where she began to feel alone,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.
