Evening of October 28, 2022

frost on the ground

Mars looking down

an ambulance idling

the only sound

To Where It's Made

criss     

                                   cross 

applesauce

              look at these

                 dirty knees

milk                                     milk

               lemonade

permission slip

                               field trip

to the fudge factory

behind curtain 1 or 2

escape hatch

to another world 

 

~Eavonka Ettinger



never so long

give me

some mates

at the game

give me a beer

& some banter

give me yesterday

because

i can’t wait for tomorrow

~Geoffrey Aitken



inner child

travels to the future

begs to return

Caging vs Birding

                I am a cage, in search of a bird. — Kafka

Wherever my mind               flies,   it   is   still

                                                                                  Confined

Tightly to this world,   this   very   cage   of

Sensory & imaginative               c e l l s

In other words,             I   is   the   cage,   while

       The whole universe                am   a   bird

~Yuan Changming

morning thaw

finally

she knows
