The Flash Mob Application
I'd like to apply for a permit
for a protest march
on the Washington Mall.
Lovely idea.
But, we're only issuing Mall permits
for Song and Dance Events.

Misguided Meditations
I am sorry
about my judgmental,
sadly disdainful,
tone

I remain embarrassed

to well-positioned see
and hear
and feel,
touched by wounded toxicity.
My training
and experience
includes victimized by homophobia
and healing through community mediation.
Within this...

Unwoven Memories
I grew up and out on a four family-owned,
and cooperatively-organized,
extended matriarchal farm.
Four interdependent 1940s through 1970s patriarchally managed businesses,
without substantial questions about who should wear pants,
yet with a surprising matriarchal cooperative understory.
The boxers outnumbered the...

We would all go for a swim, and then have a fine lunch,
And would return...

Another night, another song, another legion showcase
Some friendly folk just out for fun, an acoustic disgrace.

A Season In the Sun
After swimming at Cherry Beach, I had been returning home,
With some very cool memories, of the sand and green foam.
On the drive back I had resolved, to take the scenic route,
Like the pathway down Magnolia...

I've never considered myself nosy, I just care about people that's all,
The way gardeners care about roses, when colored leaves start to fall.

a longer and fatter, more drivable,
penal delivery system
promising retributive rape
of an entire planet.
It is time to trim back
over-Yanged investment hedges
blocking more pedestrian-friendly

It was turning into a frightful nuisance, like long shadows...
