Early to rise –
we spoke last
night of possibilities
and venture.
I suggested that
my mind was clear.
My labor temple
cleansed.
When we first
met, i spoke of a
farmer and a poet.
One, quite connected
the other searching
for foreign mystery.
I made resolution –
that we could talk like
that!
They called themselves
distant neighbors.
(So, these days
folks start their
sentences with a
word that starts a
long winded story.)
A mention.
– comma,
means pause,
wait –
Stop.
I brought you
here
by way of a place
that tore me down
to a place where
i was made.
Look around
this is all i care
for.
My Father made this
place to escape –
to come together
as family.
… to sit around this
table and fall in love …
The ones i spoke
of – were pen pals ..
nothing special …
it was what they
didn’t know
they made their
conversation…
advice
comes from
a place some
have already been
i am looking even
further …
you mention
that you wish to
convey certain
perspectives – generally
we speak in stories –
with morals and lessons –
long winded explanations
and (long- reads) that we speak
in kind.
Paying attention?
… our treasures are not
for sale to the
highest bidder …
