Performance

Performance

a performance?

take a seat

out of the range of hearing

or block the sound

and observe

feel the energies

watch the movements

what are we seeking

for our own improvements?

now stay in that seat

watch yourself on the stage

what are you doing

to have others engage?

communication

how we perform

can invoice all our senses

to go beyond the norm

Worry Time

Worry Time

too many choices?

then slow down the spin

by seeing one at a time

you’ll know where to jump in

instead of not knowing

where to begin

reduce the choices

and eliminate them

slow down, don’t worry

and start instead

then get some rest

you’re now ahead

A Bear on my Couch

A Bear on my Couch

there’s a bear sleeping on my couch

i’d greeted him standing

he’d been there for weeks

and must have been tired

it was a time for hibernation

when i went to bed

i gave an apology instead

and offered the couch

and a blanket

the bear now still sleeps

don’t know when he’ll wake up

as i don’t hibernate

i go from sleep to awake

and often wonder if a long slumber

would help us to be unencumbered

from all we accumulate

in a year of our doings
