Unlikely Friendships

Moss growing through Cracks
On the Stone Wall
Under the blazing Sun
seemed to need some more help ....

Unnatural is just a word,
In this Natural World.

Passage through constrictions
Can lend a sense of discomfiture.

But the churning of light inside stars
Connects to the Birthing of a human child.
Unlikely Friendships journeying through
Fleeting Constraints,
In the sea of human circumstances,
Connecting to beautiful Moss on Rocks
In the wild gardens we inhabit
with their snakes and apples.

Sermon on Humour


A base form of humour is making fun of others.

An enlightened form of humour is making fun of dear friends and being made fun of by dear friends and always in good overall proportions.

funnies + spring + heartbreak + geeky


A physicist with a broken heart sees the disproportionate number of new, wild spring blossoms everywhere and thinks there is no conservation law for flowering and wilting of hope.

funnies + heartbreak


A was in love with B. C is A's friend, and of B's through A.

B : I am afraid of a rat in my apartment.

C : Do you have a friend with a cat ?

A : B is allergic to cats.

C : Ah A, were you that friend ??

"running away"

The poet may hold
a simple word or two
and be wrung in to opposites.

Like running away to the future,
to the words that may bring erasure
-- if not new hope --

running away from the words
in the same heartbroken beat, from the past,
to hide the melancholia
from the kind page
that wears no mask.

Like running away to the future,
to the words that may bring erasure
-- if not new hope --

running away from the words
in the same tearing heartbeat, from the past,
to hide the melancholia
from the kind page
that wears no mask.

PS : Writing "heartbroken" is a little heartbreaking. But it is also a form of acknowledgement.
