May we be blessed to remember in the school of life
the syllabus has but one directive…
Growing old is a mandatory class
Growing up…is an elective
A handsome man, dark curly hair.
A specialist. He smiles again
and then his face
under the white half-mask
begins to peel away.
“But I didn’t come,” I say,
“for me.”
pretension
i feel out of my depth
i see your eyes
yet i am deluded
I thought I were the mast
but now I lay squalid
Yet I am a witness
to your elective behaviour
will you ever change
I tried to ask myself
but you slandered me

After the
elective execution,
you reach at the
end of nowhere.
A wayward
cloud stands alone
under the plump moon.
It is absolutely?
white, like the
wings of a swan.
Beneath the earth
you want to dig out
the remains of dark hoods.
Gale-force winds
promise to make you
snow-blind.
Satish Verma
Spring has sprung
And we are won!
No cold or frostbite,
But dew holds tight.
Circulating air,
Breeze fare.
Blossoming plants
All bright slants.
Growth exists,
Beauty consists.
Blizzards gone,
Winter’s long!
Open necks,
Hit the decks!
Perspective,
Elective.
Dialect loved,
Speciation beloved.

ingenious
ingenuous
incoherent
a confused ramble along
a detour
without a compass or map
I have so much ahead of me
all because of you
if you hadn't done this
I wouldn't have either
you are my inspiration
the reason for my success
I never want to disapoint you
You convinced me to put band down
as my elective
For that I owe you my life
You are like the big sister I never had
Aunt Amber You have taught me everything
from playing my flute to finding the greatest deals
for that I owe you my life
Form:
RE-THINK
Self-reflection rather than global critique;
Not better or worse—individuals unique
Searching solutions, as opposed to blame.
Fostering what is right, instead of the same.
Focus on traits that are strong;
More than what is wrong.
Words to rephrase—
Such as never and always.
Uncover all or nothing thought—
Must, should, have to, ought.
Things beyond control, versus choices elective
When negative things happen—finding perspective.
Barbara Campbell
Schools, parades and lots of trips,
Cruises, flights and races;
Tennis matches and events
In other crowded places:
All are being canceled or
Postponed for times awaiting.
No one knows how soon is safe
When one’s recalculating.
Expos, luncheons, weddings, shows,
Surgeries elective
Crossed off calendars because
Of cautioning directive.
Life appears to be on hold
As virus germs go flitting
And cancellations mount while fear
Shows not a chance of quitting.
