you do not walk into light
to become illuminated
the moment strikes you right
like match in flight to flame
dragging to strike
here you are, here
the point of arrival
present moment
here you are, now
in flight, then strike
then flame
never the same
always change
anything is possible
after all,
little match
it is in you all along

la vie/2
depending on whose eyes
heart and mouth
shapes a perspective,
right or wrong
i sing
for the love i bring
no forcing and no holding
back
the way nature streams
months into seasons
time into reason
for change
i slept one night
and awoke to not even a rearranged room
but a monsoon of
upside down backwardness strewn
across my brain like
tornado path trash
memories for debris
scraps of heart flesh
sticking to stones
somewhere are bones
in my legs to walk on
because
what do i say, stunned
help me understand, please?
looking around in wonder
staring at the blunder of thunder
of choices conceived from hurt
now the voices of song
sing of a love stronger
than right or wrong
but of seasons gone
chaotic nature
ensures change
the comfortable are always rearranged
heart and mouth
shapes a perspective,
right or wrong
i sing
for the love i bring
no forcing and no holding
back
the way nature streams
months into seasons
time into reason
for change
i slept one night

but a monsoon of
upside down backwardness strewn
across my brain like

La Vie/1
Setting goals and realizing them.
Generating vision.
Watching a sunset.
Breathing deeply.
Present moment, oh, yes, here I am.
Peeling back the rind, biting into the natural kind, planting the seeds I find.
A smile is a heart beating with sun shining through its rhythm.
Have wide angle vision, perspective.
Inviting time to heal.
Defining recovery.
Oh, self-resiliency and self-reliance, heyy.
Silence and acceptance.
Reclaim power in reclaiming.
Walking with hope.
"Take it light" and "No big deal"
Intolerance for bullshit and disrespect.
Grassroots, movement of the people.
Frozen grapes and dried mangoes.
The Vine- hummus, hookah, family.
Dreaming, living the questions.
Change is constant.
Anything is possible.
What is next?
Generating vision.
Watching a sunset.
Breathing deeply.
Present moment, oh, yes, here I am.
Peeling back the rind, biting into the natural kind, planting the seeds I find.
A smile is a heart beating with sun shining through its rhythm.
Have wide angle vision, perspective.
Inviting time to heal.
Defining recovery.
Oh, self-resiliency and self-reliance, heyy.
Silence and acceptance.
Reclaim power in reclaiming.
Walking with hope.
"Take it light" and "No big deal"
Intolerance for bullshit and disrespect.
Grassroots, movement of the people.
Frozen grapes and dried mangoes.
The Vine- hummus, hookah, family.
Dreaming, living the questions.
Change is constant.
Anything is possible.
What is next?

try/1
spin the web, spider
weave the web
around your head
a design of thread in time
a process
with purpose, skill
from across
looking from another branch
distance calls perspective
to answer reflections
rings
oh, a spider
a web, threads in time
another web,
more threads in time
weave the web
around your head
a design of thread in time
a process
with purpose, skill
from across
looking from another branch
distance calls perspective
to answer reflections
rings
oh, a spider
a web, threads in time
another web,
more threads in time
