Though the most heinous deeds cannot shatter our faith in humanity, one small act of kindness and civility can wholly rekindle it cc: Chagall 2022
I've been practicing a lot of bebop lately playing heads and I'm running riffs and I notice the birds in the trees 'round my way are trilling and stretching out more on their chorus cc: Chagall 2021
reflect the imperceptible flutter of butterfly shadow the slow fade of the lash backlight the winged convocation of eagle way above the canopy at the base of the blade of scented grass linger the day's closing rays cc: Chagall 2021
on my way inside I pass a furry bee busy by the screen door she is beautiful in sunlight I say Take care of things out here while I'm gone!

to be post-modern when the modern age hasn't yet ended behind in these times so gratefully, gracefully a gull over water arcs in a breeze deep deafened hurtle to drown head-first in life one foot in front of some other one-at-a-time once upon a time, this silent oath: I am cc: Chagall 2021
This morning a butterfly sleeps
on the screen of my porch with antennae
lightly cupping the mesh
I stare deep into her round compound eye
and blow gently along her abdomen
She stirs, lifts off in flight then vanishes

I started to write a poem then shifted

if you and i were hummingbirds
you would never alight at the feeder
but instead would draw nectar pulsing midair wildly
frenetic and i would simply perch, sip, occasionally peek
over our shoulders
to the jet stream, my dear?

You remind me of someone you were, how you do that
so perfectly effortless
Evoke the we that we were
cue the salty sea air
Everything about then is beach-washed
designs, that’s how I remember
How could it be otherwise, the
other times we would soar
Just a little
bit more
We remind us
of then
Join me. Inhale – long –
and hold it gently.
