Leaving Mirrors
Seeping away,
Leaking through the pores
Of caring.
Leading to an ignorance
Of mirrors, fears,
Opinions, tears;
Spots that toll the bells
Of funerals.

In The Mind
In the mind: ideas, pictures,
Gods, guides, good:
Each/every atom that must train, learn, burn
For something; turn
Itself inside and out
For worthwhile something(s) done.
Will. At some point
A will must will the will
To flow around and through
The sealed system you
reside in.
Fourteen hundred forty minutes’
Journey each and every
day
Until those atoms fan out
Into timelessness, all to the good
eventually.

Spring Observations
Spring once again:
Friends born in March’s
Transition.
Equinox,
The change of clocks,
Eight crocuses,
Phenomena a hocus pocus
Miracle; a trick
And lucky them!
Hair starts to sun-bleach.
I sit on our mini-beach.
Married pair of ducks out there,
Duck-ette and male –
Behind his tail,
Loyal to the end.
The verandah now has ants.
Water/vinegar concoction works –
They’ve gone back down,
Maybe elsewhere,
Leaving the plants alone –
For now.
It’s just the start,
This greatest part of
All four seasons;
Gnat, tic, fly, mosquito
Not awake or born.
(however they come into
being.)
On the other hand,
A butterfly came flutt’ring by
Not stopping to demean itself
By landing.
Tomorrow will supply
More info.

Occupied with Resistance: Rolling Up Jeans 2012

Notes Occupied With Resistance: Rolling Up Jeans
As I was rolling up the cuffs of my jeans, the denim kept thickening, resisting my attempts at rolling. I found myself wanting to stop, when i realized that it as a sign that my hand was weak – not that the material was strong.
Mind has an inherent desire for good, every movement valuable. Don’t let natural resistanceput you off.. Resistance is more a sign that that the particular, the momentary is precisely what you need to work on/go through/pass through.
I carried on rolling. I’d won.

Occupied With Resistance
Rolling up the cuffs,
Denim thickening, resisting
With each fold.
Wanting to break off, let go
(it is her natal weakness)
Seizing stitch
And see it as a sign.
It isn’t that the cuff was strong:
The hand was weak.

You Change
You change.
You do not like it.
This ‘do not like’ business
Silliest of vanities,
Sticking with, hanging on,
As if the world cared what you look like;
As if concentrative levels
Of the average bloke
Of any sex,
Was not that of a five year old.
You vex
As if all life and value
Hung upon it. Alteration does not scold.
The world runs on. It runs away
In regulating law.
Attraction not attractiveness
The net in which we haul in fish.

Specialist
We used to call a specialist
A specialist.
Then egghead
(definitely 50’s out)
Now it’s nerd:
A focuser, dedicated expert – with
“I know a little bit
About a lot of things…”
Left to the quiz show whiz.
These days to ‘know
A lot about a little thing
And save the world’ with it
Is in in my small business
Not for show.

Not Goal But Mechanism
Gratitude:
Imagining in image,
Image in imaginings;
Not goal but mechanism;
Working tool to get you there,
Where thinking clearer betters life
And life for those around. Undervalued
As a talent, knack and aptitude,
When you get it, feel it, use it!
Not a goal but mechanism.
