  • A fine Paper-Bag Day(7)Napowrimo

    April 8th, 2015

    Just like that

    brown paper bag,

    her ninnies began to sag.

    But it didn’t make her feel

    bad to have holes in both her pockets.

    Neither did she feel poor,

    just rubbing two nickels together,

    waiting for her next out-pour.

    Dancing drops in summer’s drought,

    not that she had any doubt

    that her girth, had given supple-supply

    for every one of her babies.

    And just like that,

    Baby!

    We’d be,

    just fine.

  • Day (1) Sunrise (Napowrimo

    April 2nd, 2015
    Perhaps the day never breaks,
    and night remained king,
    Surely we’d scurry about,
    in twilight hoping
    But suppose our souls wern’t worth saving,
    Ah-then
    Sunrise,
    would be everything

  • Never Offer Your Heart to Someone Who Eats Hearts

    April 1st, 2015

    In Honor of National Poetry Month before -the writers Burst into writing with first sign of ink ,I thought of Alice Walker 

    by Alice Walker:

    Never offer your heart
    to someone who eats hearts
    who finds heartmeat
    delicious
    but not rare
    who sucks the juices
    drop by drop
    and bloody-chinned
    grins
    like a God.

    Never offer your heart
    to a heart gravy lover.
    Your stewed, overseasoned
    heart consumed
    he will sop up your grief
    with bread
    and send it shuttling
    from side to side
    in his mouth
    like bubblegum.

    If you find yourself
    in love
    with a person
    who eats hearts
    these things
    you must do.

    Freeze your heart
    immediately.
    Let him—next time
    he examines your chest—
    find your heart cold
    flinty and unappetizing.

    Refrain from kissing
    lest he in revenge
    dampen the spark
    in your soul.

    Now,
    sail away to Africa
    where holy women
    await you
    on the shore—
    long having practiced the art
    of replacing hearts
    with God and Song.

    by Alice Walker

  • Be-Easy

    March 13th, 2015

    Sometimes, I make life so complicated. Following the stream, makes me grow. Instead of banging my head against the river- bed. I am learning, just be-easy. It’s freaking-that simple, be-easy. Life is full of fun -surprises, and who doesn’t want to have fun!

    When I look around and see, warm sunshine, green grass and the mud that makes little children dirty. I realize I’m okay, right here. This is the path that brings me laughter, that oh-ey gooey feelings, drizzling with chocolate and butterscotch ice cream. Okay,  back to that thing happening in my life. I’m  on “30 days of thankfulness” Just being easy with me and the rest will come.

    No, I’m not always happy, I slip off into the why’s of life. Why did I leave the house with my house-shoes? Why are the kids so loud? Why is there a little flying nat, annoying the crap out of me? WHy , Why Why?

    So these 30 days are stretching me, off my traditional rubber-band, paddling up stream.(i.e. fighting the waters like the dog that can’t swim)

    I am learning to say “all is well ( or to hell with it -which ever works !).”
