Smile
Time travel.
First me now and
then you, also now, too

And space travel when 
you share this with someone 
and it plays on their lips elsewhere 
now and later, too.

Smile … until
you can
feel your
breath

Palm Labyrinth
You may sit down with a palm reader and become vulnerable; open.They tell you what comes to their mind.You trust. You listen. Maybe you take notes.It’s a wonderful thing. To be that open with another.Soon now,  you will trust yourself enough, to sit quietly and open your palm. Instead of reading the lines, you may write the lines with the index finger of your dominant hand.Write the lines of your life as you see them from where you are. Be kind.Begin simply.I. Love. You.

A Beautiful Day for Rest

With the cloud cover full of rain 
the airport seems closer. The 
background noise rolls forward.

She mentions that the Supreme 
Court seems poised to overturn 
Roe versus Wade.

I roll forward, into the kitchen, and 
put away the dishes. Raindrops 
sparkle out the window, in the lawn.

I seem poised to declare a third 
Sunday this week. It looks like a 
beautiful day for rest.

Recall Alert on all models;

Cradle of Civilization.

Reasons: 
Lethal splinters due to faulty design.
Substandard hardware.
Toxic varnish. Do not use splinters for kindling.
Prolonged use may cause collapse of capitalism, 
climate, and multiple species.

Workaround:
Unbolt capitalist underpinnings and allowing the 
creator to free fall from consumer comforts.

Anarchy? Matriarchy!
with loving support of ex-pats.
