That sudden burst of
roadside blue – could it be some
bachelors eager for summer?

Anticipating
a buoyant Beltane ballet
with Buttercups and Bluebells!

The ground we’re standing,
often governs who we see
as heroes and as villains.
~
Taking the high ground
will help us see them far more
comprehensively.
How many aides does
it take to change his light bulb
when dark thoughts fill every room?
~
Since roaches relish
dimly lit nooks and crannies,
where’s the incentive to change?
Waiting two hours
for this pointless appointment:
Federal Efficiency.
~
Hours come and go.
Some move fast and some move slow.
Mind and heart take their measure.
If it’s progress we
want, let’s stop building walls and
shredding the truth.
~
Some believe they’re Right
to build walls to keep folk out,
to lock truth deniers in.
Endless foolishness,
flowing freely from the swamp,
inundating hearts and minds.
~
Nothing that flows from
that swamp is free, as many
soy farmers have discovered.
Just trying to be
patient with my impatience
and that of others .
~
Just so long as you’re
loving to the odious
and their patent odium.
In equal measure,
elation and misery
scaffold this glorious life.
~
And then there’s all that
falls between these two extremes
and glues it all together.
It’s not for lack of
wise teachers that we remain
heartbreakingly ignorant.
~
Like stubborn horses
with our bits between our teeth,
from that trough, we will not feast.
Just because we’re not
laboring for your pleasure,
doesn’t mean we’re at leisure.
~
Your pleasure is not
a measure of a job done
honestly and well.
