BEEing
Incapable of Flight
Where
to BEgin?
Must
one remind the heart to beat?
Why
not simply BE?
And
if the weight
of
countless hopes and fears
should
hold one back,
simply
follow them
to
their
BEginning.

Current
Events
Everyone
who has ever
caught
a ball
has
accurately predicted
the
future.
Everyone
who has ever
dodged
one
has
changed it.
Everyone
who sees
one
coming
that
can't be caught
or
dodged
is
destined
to
feel
the
impact.

Esthetic
Conundrum
There
is the obvious,
then
there is the hidden.
If
to some the quality
of
discernment is proportioned
in
greater compense,
then
where is the master
of
such largess,
for
at times,
this
one discerns
great
suffering
in
the world
and
would
that
it abide not
in
this fitful dream
called
life.
Abet,
if it be gone,
what
cause to appreciate
the
warmth of kindness
and
comforting good humor
of
loving friends.

The
Unexpected
At
the dock this morning
while
all my thoughts were
playing
with the dolphins
in
the bay, and winging in
in
majestic circles with the gulls,
As
I was feeding them breakfast,
one
flew into my face and startled me!
After
so many eons, to be truly startled
is
such a wonderful treasure
beyond
price!
It's
times like that
that
make being born
very
much worth it.

Enlightening
Discourse
When
one doesn't have anything to say,
this
the best time for elocution.
Speaking
from impassion
a
patient honesty is revealed
that
preserves the peace
in
a world oft troubled
with
the patter of
firm
conviction

Phenotype
Those
who
engage
life
fully
do
so
with
the attentiveness
of
a hungry cat
and
the joyful abandon
of
a happy dog.
