Do I look blurry to a fish,
as if a floating cloud?
Does it expect I’ll dart away
as silence rings aloud?


a swamp,
beautifully adorned,
poses for pics.

eyes follow stems
down to water, & further
down to sky.

gray clouds
over the river
make silver waters.

algae-covered pond:
provides a blank-slate
for shadow art.


Describe one habit that brings you joy.
I found the one from “The Flying Nun” to be quite whimsical, and it inspired jovial moments.
What are you curious about?
Everything. But I have learned to be less obsessed with the grand metaphysical questions for which no one has any defensible answers – just rank speculation. Socrates convinced me it’s not worth worrying about abstractions while one is still struggling with fundamental questions of how to be human.
