My book will be a recollection of re-blogs
of other people’s rework of adaptations

In the past I thought just flavor
but now I conceive technique.

Life expectancy is a state of mind.
At 60 I tell myself I am less
than a tenth of the way there – to set the tone –
and my genes respond quite favorably.
Stop selling yourself short – get ready for the long haul.
Luxuriate in life and time.
Enough of this “60 is the new 40” crap.
600 anyone?

a tale,
emit,
alit on tines;
time,
timeless,
timelessness;
lament time,
I tell my tales,
all mine;
sentiment,
sentimental,
sentimentality;
mental state,
stalemate,
sameness;
names,
a mess,
me…I…;
limit,
limitless,
limitlessness;
miles yet,
I smile,
till I lie still;
sense,
senses,
sensate;
sans any timelines,
ill in time,
my last line;
senile,
senilely,
senility;
it lies,
in nil,
sans any tielines;
stillness,
stillnessless,
I see me all lit in tinsel.

You can’t do what they don’t tell you to do,
it’ll only make things worse.

A copulating cluster of cicada killers crowds the concrete walk,
but I don’t care – I just walk on by with my head held high,
hoping they don’t attack me.

(originally titled Slip Slidin’ Away)
An old lady sneezed on the bus today
and the driver yelled out
God Bless You!
His benediction hung there
in the quiet morning rush
in the dust that drifted
in the slanted sun of near autumn
coming through the windows
And the dozen of us on the bus
realized that this was no mere driver
but a holy man
in masquerade
a messiah in blue shirt
his holy locks tucked
under a union cap
He later affirmed that he was
based on the aplomb displayed
with the hydraulic doors
and keeping people back
of the line

When Walt Whitman first started his blog
he was disappointed by an initial lack of readers,
and then he met Frost.
