Still

My heart is as placid as the
lake, and a rowboat glides smoothly
over the stillness
whilst underneath life churns.

Things eat each other.
Dive bomb birds,
cast lines reel,
and memories swirl
but the rowboat continues
to the very center
unperturbed
and drops it's anchor
into the churning
homeostasis.

Kineticism

It's as though magnetism
is pulling me into every
possible corner of my existence,
but because equal and opposite
force is being exerted
from every direction,
I remain intact and still,
while highly energized
with potential.

Hope From Lilli

Beautiful Lilli bud,
frosted over before you could bloom,
tonight I sing for you,
flowering voices filling the room
and we grow because you made us want to,
what many of us needed
was a sweet miracle like you.
