I think that
you might be
my next muse
and before you
get all woogy
try to understand
this that some
of us are
plants and some
of us are
the watering can
which is which
never really matters

QuietlyNormal (for Gil)
There’s this odd
thing that happens
the longer that
I go without
the more that
I realize that
I don’t need
contrary to what
most do believe
the absence of
something does not
promote its pursuit
for once one
is past missing
the lack of
what once was
becomes quietly normal
BushelBasket
So many people
for some reason
or for another
prefer to live
in the same
damp dark comfortable
life that they
made for themselves
and then behave
like a broken
record playing the
same old tired
song to anyone
who will listen
leave them under
their bushel basket
and turn your
light onto those
who are willing
and happy to
step into it
LossVsWin
I’ve lost more
than I’ve won
but the losses
unlike the wins
taught me more
the wins well
like the winds
come and go
cooling the fire
that losses set
ThyLove
I am learning
every single day
the importance of
putting me first
this isn’t selfish
it is essential
immersing ourselves in
the bath that
we are not
only cleanses but
also rejuvenates us
take your time
with yourself today
you will love
yourself for it
