A Simple Epiphany Sit in the dark. Just sit. Listen to the pervading silence. Hear the hum of an HVAC system warming your townhouse. But listen to the silence beyond it. Let those thoughts come—as long as you let them go. When the last of them settles down, see the darkened outline of a carpeted floor and the rough contours of the dresser. Feel the subtle vibration in your hara, as chi settles.

Samhainic Isolation The ravens come. An oak tree filled with autumnal-colored, yet shriveling, leaves stands on a stretch of fading grass. The birds perch on its outstretched limbs and on the ground before it. The Morrigan follows her flock. Pale, black haired, a carnivorous smile across her gaunt, cadaverous visage, she spreads her right arm to her corvids. Their cawing draw forth memories: The shared laughter on beer-stained couches with college friends.

The First Summer Heatwave The sun blazed across a sky with few clouds. Searing heat cooked me to a toasty medium well just on my walk from the front door to the car. Heat shimmers rose from the asphalt. But inside the Columbus Educational campus, many valiant air conditioners drone on in their noble struggle to maintain a comfortable chill. One has done such an effective job that I put on my green Levi hoodie.

A farewell to Pretty in Pink Hello, new friend. I did not know you long. Not like my beloved Maple Tree, whose shade protected my deck during the searing summer months. Technically, you're not even my tree, as you stand on my neighbor's front yard. But your luscious cherry blossoms brightened these last two Springs. Sure, you bloomed late this year, but I'm sure you had your reasons.

The Advent of March The mad month begins with the aftermath of the Trump ambush of Zelanskyy. Political theater and "good TV" replace principled policy and honorable alliance. warm-weather a white rabbit running late The mad month continues with a Murphy's Law procession of technical difficulties. A simple file attachment of reasonably-requested documentation becomes a Rubik's Cube of dysfunction from which I must disentangle.

Groundhog Night Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of Winter. That same night, an inch or two of snow accumulated on my street. Beyonce's "Cowboy Carter" won the Album of the Year Grammy, to the surprise of no one. & an all-to-familiar snoring woke me up in the middle of the night. Again. arthritic ache the streets aglow in radiant snow I'm hosting Haibun Monday over at dVerse. The pub is still open! Come join us!
