G*d seeks us
For us
For need
For reaching
G*d can reach more
Through us
Yet it is for
Joy of Reaching

Poetry, this making
Poetry, this making
Focuses us on images
Stories, action
Hear and now to
Stay and Play

Open space never works
Open Space always works and it never works—It always gets people working on what they care about. It never gives the full-control people what they want.

Pond is muddy
Pond is muddy from the rains
Leaves are dancing in the airs
Birds still call to one another
So do we, so do we

The heart is directly connected to the ears: if we are heard, we love.

Ask it in the morning
Ask it in the morning
Ask it in the evening
Ask it when you’re tired
Ask it when your sprightly
Ask your friends
Especially ask a stranger every day—
What can we do?

open you
A User’s Guide—words and thoughts to open you:
Balamah, village of mystery
Circles about Harrison
Dancers, Drummers, horn players
Expectations of rhythms swirling
Flowing people, flowing, flowing
Geometry sacred more profane
However it comes evokes humanity
Inviting initiations, issues, opportunities
Joining collaborative effort
Kin we are to bees and butterflies
Large rooms, small, all space for the law
Medicine wheels, morning gatherings, mobility
News walls
OSonOS: what kind of a word is that?
Passion it elicits from us
Quantum of Spirit its mythos
Reflections on responsibility in a shoe factory
Space likes to be held, to hold lightly the
Tibetan temple bells calling calling
Unexpected situations call us to our own
Village marketplace
Walls somehow create space
Xenophobes make friends of the strange and
Yawning, the man in the hat disappears to
ZZZzzzz….
:- Doug.
