YEAH! WOO-FREAKIN-HOO!!!
Thirty April days, each one
A written poem
Grain elevator
Easily mistaken for
Farm-town church steeple
Awake! Thunderstorm.
Cozy warm under covers
Don't wanna get up...
In her arms, relaxed
After all our trials, still
Twenty-six great years
Drip drop water splats
Birds chirping, flitting, singing
Moment of stillness
Long productive day
At leisure... with family
Model to repeat
Spending energy
Nothing at all accomplished
Children making friends
Mist fills the valleys
Flowers pop: comfrey, Iris
Magical morning.
"Just" a "normal" day:
Went to work, hung out with friends
Evening filled with talk
What good can be done?
The main question required
to make life better.
Why am I Still here?
Nothing ties me to this place...
Except inertia
wasting away life
one hour then another
never being Still
unintended "Bug"
creates "Feature" conditions
despite Negligence.
Friction deters use:
uphill, pathless, agenda...
obvious hind-sight
walkers ignore it;
too busy, exercising,
staring at phone...
Single ancient tree,
hill, bench, dandelions, pavement:
Industrial peace,
