"I said no in thunder." That really resonates with me! I have learned to say "no" in volcano. For women denied access to their anger, the top eventually blows ;-)

The great one, Jim Harrison! I hope you’re out there somewhere, living it up in the mangroves.

(Thanks for posting, Weston.)

A fave poet and instigator

After Jim Harrison...

Woke.

Or not as asleep?

Not enough. Never soundly.

Training for faux bravery

Not providing enough volatile

Fear to mimic security.

Fear: A formidable enemy.

A sketchy friend.

I followed the rules.

Simple promises muttered

Timed them it until I felt

I had something to offer.

Promises-Not - Vows

I timed it just right. You said.

You too.

And the other two plus two.

Merciless Gods live in castles in the air.

I'm having a hard time trying to breathe.

Endless rolling the stone and

A modicum of faith

has kept me from being crushed -

but touch and skin would be the first choice.

History says the payoff

won't be as marketed anyway.

At least I understand the certainty of stone.

Simple promises muttered

Promises heard.

Broken .

Timed by False starts.

A sun leaves up

A sun leaves down

That are not to tell me

This you died old

Youth stayed before you

And you fell behind

Autumn didnt end there and no time

Keeps old ants down in Mauritius

Today you took two hears in the inside nation and you heard yes outside of lightning

You are two cats off two long divides

And then that is a devide
