public and private
deeply imbedded in us
waste fraud and abuse
-
Craiyon -
lift of life makes me
soar upon wings of desire
to swoop from above
down into beloved arms
that swaddle my poor sore soul -
Lie in the tall grass
Watch dark smoke clouds roll on by
Duck and cover life -
today is just one
more example of humans
humaning because
we are great big bundles of
our cognitive dissonance -
Craiyon perpetuating
the mix up that messed us up
most egregiously -
Bees fueled by pollen
Transform nectar to honey
Oatmeal sweetener -
torrent of liquid
information pours into
my being, takes shape
of container, then trickles
from fingertips, mouth, and pores -
The abyss between
Objective reality
And it's perception
Devours all the safe space
Leaves all the evil behind -
a sentient bean
am I and will keep being
one until I'm not -
slim girl with braces
now countenance and carriage
today's Junoesque -
while she took her bows
summer stock stage star's skin would
glisten neath prop moon -

for me is downloaded in
wrinkly prune format -
a better world would
have more Namaste and less
mine mine mine mine mine -

You were my first draft
Left glorious and unscathed
That was our moment
Then the real world rushed in
Forcing revisions on us -
saddened that poison
political pollen rains
down on our parade -
Equinox balance
Caress the wild within you
Always cedes valence -
Where money is charged
Profiteers keep opaque what
Species go extinct -
Just trying to chill
Up in the Empyrean
While y'all cry down there -
Photo by The Shotify on Pexels.com A murder of crows
A scavenging of seagulls
More than just a flock -
Nibble and a sip.
In your bag. On your person.
I could count on yum.
