No progress
“How can a place remain unchanged for decades? Progress bypasses certain lethargic mindsets and places.” “What makes you say that, Uncle John? The eatery at the corner has just sprung up.” “The yellow-and-black number plates on cabs, the style of parking with two wheels on the sidewalk, and people rushing towards the railway station in … Continue reading No progress

turmoil speaks to me like nothing else my sharp vision penetrates a calm exterior with raging storms inside storms speak to me like nothing else ticking time bombs… will they explode to consume themselves and others? bombs speak to me like nothing else where does angst go after thunder flashes do you ignore signals of … Continue reading Turmoil
Gratitude
https://open.spotify.com/episode/3TxE70l9bcd4WT8CuEhbIl?si=12950ab776e440fb I say thanks to so many people so many times - politeness, protocol, gratitude, or to close a conversation.

Legal Identity # Trinet
Legal identity ….by Jane Aguiar
A brown
wooden
house in nature’s heaven
on a lake near mountain
under
blue sky
is set
A big
shadow
falls on the wooden house
as if Satan has come
to steal
during
the day
The birth
of child
born by surrogacy,
legal identity
of child’s
mother
stolen

Stolen Identity
The woman currently abiding
within this costumed realm
is merely a lethargic version
of the once vital but oppressed
Miss, whose identification
was stolen by means of
unsolicited adversity.
The focus of this recanting
is to invite a perspective
that not only restores, but
aids in the teaching of other
shadow-selves, that to reassert
original nature is more than fair.
(A quirky rant for Reena’s Xploration challenge: a stolen identity ; and Eugi’s weekly prompt: shadows. Art my own)
