The Ever-Ascending Flower

The Ever-Ascending Flower

This is my dear friend Florence and the effect you see was produced by camera motion.  I did some slight color correction work.

The sign says…

Friday, June 4th, 2010

The sign says
“FOR YOUR SAFETY
THIS SIDEWALK
CLOSED”
like “the flower closed,
embracing its petals in the night”
or, “closed I
in on the cabin door”

So—the sidewalk
closed itself
and the city, the workcrew
put up a sign
to let us know.

To let us know
about safety.

The Wishing Well

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

a stark calamity
evades this me
not because
destruction was
somehow out-
side my shout-
ing life, but
within my gut
and in my mind
the gods may find
a patient piece
of freshest fleece
where my panic
with her wick
are nestled cozy
(two pressed posie
s) and cast an odd
intricate facade
of calm above
my eyes of love

please don’t tell
the wishing well

I am a different

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

I am a different
sort of person
than you have ever met
than you will ever meet

I want to feel my pain
laugh my joy
cry my grief
spit my rage
work my play
rattle the cage

wake up and
run

I want to breathe
every breath
not set my life
on automatic

Let me know if you have any questions.  I look forward to reading your comments and suggestions.

A Bird in the Greenhouse

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

he thinks he has stumbled upon the wooden Gate
of some lost summer. he does not hesitate
but pushes wide the creaking wood, opens up his
wings to the confined air, exploring what is
always just beyond imagination. What of
his freedom lost? a happy prisoner to love
