I am growing my garden

Tomatoes, potatoes
Carrots and peas
Pumpkins and squash
An orange tree

Lemons and roses
Flowers for bees
And apples in the orchard

I am growing my garden

Tending and touching
Digging and cutting
Laying out straw
Hoping the slugs don’t eat it all

I am growing my garden

Now the world broke apart
and is ready to fall.

There is a silence at night, a deep stillness, that allows the mind to open wide into the universe …

This space where
rather than converse
we talk write text
at each other
not to, forget with
one / another

masses of individuals
so many I-s so many Me-s
screaming soundless
endlessly into the void

hoping for a response
but all that bounces back ping-ping-ping
is the echo of our own voices ding-ding-ding
ricochets and rebounds
off of each other

over and over and over and over and over
(why am I so tired?)
and over again
until the onslaught of words
congeals;

that deafening silence.

In the distance
longed for desperately
written about once again
murmurs of actual conversation –

Sometimes I feel I write the same the same the same and yet
I know it is not
Weird

Crisp sentences
Mellifluous scenes

I want a string of words stuck in your head
since breakfast
