Feeding flames
A creative inferno
Taking advantage
Of burning,
inspired!
Before the embers grow cool,
reticent,
And the smoke alone remains

Reassembled
August 11, 2017
They pack up boxes,
Reexamine items,
Shift through old and unused,
Label parcels to ship, recycle, discard
Reexamine their lives,
And how and where to take the next step,
They give away items,
To friends who remain behind,
Friends who see them off,
Friends who wish them well,
Friends who keep pieces of them to remind,
remember the love of their friends
Who have reassembled their lives,
South, North, and West coast.
Never Ended
Love is always
love is forever
love never ended
it never began
it was just discovered
and it will go on
like the universe
expanding,
spreading out,
never ending.

Fighting
Fleeing
Finding hope
Reason To
Try to stand
Standing
Up
On A rock
that is spinning
Fast
And faster still
In infinite space
A speck of dust

Group as entity
Of individual identities,
Developing
Defining
US v. Them
You v. Me
Wipe blades clean,
Rinse
Cycle
Repeat,
Virtuous,
And virtueless,
Remaking
Master’s tools
Under the table
