A nice sentiment for Thursday morning.
taking steep steps
through shallow waters
i find my dignity
REM sleep
batting eyelashes
new scenes presiding
firm mattress flips out the guy
transforms him into a flying man
with plot-ripe intentions
a future superhero
who lacerates all previously-written scripts
from now on
it’s high concept all the way
new scene:
he pulls you along through the marigolds

I find it interesting how when we need something to help us it falls into our laps or our Facebook folder. Parker Palmer is one of my favourite authors and thinkers. He is also a very good poet. I needed this poem today. It was not busy, but I sensed I needed quiet and space to let the words form. I began a 24 hour run with three meetings scheduled and spent most of my day in front of the computer completing ‘necessary paperwork’. I felt fried at the end of the day and, as I drove home, I thought of this wonderful poem that Parker Palmer shared on Facebook. It calmed me and I found myself at peace at the various lights and stops on the way home.
