Warm light
and a
Lithe body skimming
.
Ampersand hovering over the water
mysterious seamless apparition
.
No words
No truths
No forgetting
There
.
A wild rash that brings pleasure with every scratch.
No cure
No hope of healing
.
Ampersand hovering over the water
and and and
.
Glide and dive
Collect a pebble:
this moment,
eons ago.
Hold them fast
.

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.

It will make you a child again, if only for a moment…
My friend Maren was in town the week before last, and we spent Valentine’s together. A day worthy of shiny red shoes, eating scrumptious banh-mi with cock sauce, sipping steaming and belly warming beverages, dancing, making cookies, and, of course, talking up a storm. How lucky I am to have her in my life. Lucky we can be of different generations, yet cut from the same cloth:getting jazzed, funky, and silly; laughing at our foibles; sharing secrets and dreams; and loving wholeheartedly, that best of all.
