Need to chill ...

Nothing I could do...

Facing you ...

Storm Chaser...

Met a mother on the phone
Wanted to know where's my home

Wondered if they ever trust the job they've done
Will they ever say just go and have fun

Saw a girl chase a storm
Caught in the vortices of forlorn
Wanting to maybe break away
Thinking perhaps she should stay

Will you dance with me?
Take a chance and see
If we only knew
What was truly true

We'd all know what to do...

Two Thousand and Hamsa...

I was told last week that 2005 is going to be a lucky year because 5 (Hamsa) in ancient lore represents the hand. The hand that guards us from the evil eye. The evil eye isn't really 'evil' apparently but means the gaze of someone who is envious and looks for too long. In some cultures it is the vulva being guarded as in the source of life? Hamsa is said to protect my sperm and young fruit trees as well! Gives a whole new spin on "Talk to the Hand".

I saw this photo and had to put a few things together with it....but the whole time my thoughts were about luck. Do you feel lucky now? Is it going to be a good year? I'm 45 does that mean I get double luck until August? A friends birthdays is on November 5 and thats the first thing she said. So do you have to know about the charm for it to be working for you ... or will the whole world have better luck this year. Well I'm not taking any chances ...so have good Hamsa now that you know!

Lynn's Legacy...

At what age do I remember you?
For you have been gone awhile
Was it like that in reality?
Or just a nice memory
You taught me a lot
Much from within
Handing out socks
Christmas at the Scott
Return one's property
Vocabulary & Dignity...

Champion of causes
Except not your own
I guess that's right
But you felt all alone
Your criticalness of thought
The battles that you fought
The justice that you sought
Your refusal to be bought
Ideals of a mother's legacy
Those are my memories

Human Remains ...

Its not often that you reach out and find a kindred spirit...one that in all its humbleness confirms that we are all just humans...for don't we all endeavour to exist in our own carcass...but when you can step out through someone else's eyes...just for a moment...see what they see...it's a wonder to me...and I'm grateful for their philosophy.

It's all in the eyes...

Naked before you ...

Cultures, time zones, and distance
Last night
Not much sleep
Who are you?...Hey this is me
I see your words in my window
Your smiley faces...I can only imagine
So I make up my own little story
My experience dictates it
Or is it hope writing this one
Layer by layer we strip
Who's keeping score
You first...No you first
I went first last time
Ok I'll show you another piece of my skin
Oh ...whats that scar
It's nothing really
I'll tell you about it later

Ground-hog day ... as in Bill Murray

So the page has turned on 2004. Hope of a different world ... like something real has changed. The resolutions, revolutions, and evolutions.

Why do I continue to walk through the fog of your reality
Being drawn into all its complicity
When all I want is your honesty
The facts about you and he
Can you find the courage behind my lee
To think about what you really see
No matter what it makes you be
Or how it affects you and me
I know it won't come easily
