the colour of morning
snapped its string
one moment of freedom

too brief

am standing in my drive arms out
turning slowly in the blood warm wind

how many will sweep yesterday
under the radiating rug

who was
Yeshua's
birth father...
i wonder about
Miriam's grief

#gogyohka

much of orthodox Christianity is centered around the 'miraculous' birth of Yeshua. Nowadays folks are framing the story as SA committed by God against young Miriam (Mary - 13 or 14 yrs old.)

GOGYOHKA
Forgetting my glasses,
I turned back
toward home,
the country road
a Monet landscape

GOGYOHKA
We circle around
the mobius strip of life,
insides reaching outside,
outside seeping inside —
ourselves one with the world,
