Can you?

Can you still manage to care for the vulnerable?

Presidents’ Day

And it occurs to me that the throat of sunrise has more than a singular sermon,
A detailed close-up of a clenched fist striking a red surface showcasing strength.

Ever have a morning

Ever have a morning where everything seems to bother you? Where coffee filters conjoin like slurwords, and not even your longest thumbnail can separate what has become what?
Silhouette of a hand about to open a door with keys in lock, symbolizing security.

Painting the Door

When sometimes you paint a door because you’ve left it too long,
Closeup of fearful brown pismires with black antennae and paws crawling on uneven surface in zoological garden in daylight

march

they march in, four by four by four, each
Detailed close-up of a black feather on a white background, showcasing natural textures.

Meditation on a feather in the vase on my windowsill

I’m looking at the details. The smaller picture. Minutia of goose plume,

What I’m not thinking about

What I’m not thinking about is the lawn mower,
Close-up of hands throwing vibrant purple powder outdoors, capturing motion and color.

Wrapping Up 2024 (this is not a poem)

This morning, as I was logging my weight, figuring out my highest, lowest and current, it occurred to me I ought to sum up the year, or at least the highlights.
Closeup of fearful brown pismires with black antennae and paws crawling on uneven surface in zoological garden in daylight

Metaphor for 2024

They should never have planted that tree so close to the old foundation.
