Let yourself ease into the flow….
Let the flow do its work….

:- Doug.

Private armies: war to the highest bidder.

:- Doug.

Safe is the base
not the best
we can do
for our elders

:- Doug.

Legislation draws lines
creates thou shalt nots
time passes the books become
ponderous on our necks
we no longer run free

:- Doug.

Here have been idyllic days
in many ways
little work
much work
sitting
flying

:- Doug.

Do what’s right
people will hate you
and forget you
what do you care?
Love as you can

:- Doug.

Seek the whole, complete, fully heard meeting.

:- Doug.

By hand, by inviting,
by witnessing
we help the world choose

:- Doug.

Bend the stronger force
But choose

:- Doug.

Inviting is truth
Witnessing is beauty
Muscle is goodness

:- Doug.

Footprints in the Wind^sm # 1492

Now
I don’t matter
I don’t care
I don’t know the difference
Your actions speak

Even in Now
My individuality matters
I am not a thing
Grist for your mill
A task in your list
I am
A person
Who matters
Now

Shift change is not
The Now to wake me
6 am the time for breakfast
I crave and need
My dreams
My Now
My own schedule

Give me my
Now
Am I not still human
Now?
Preserve to me my human
Now

Please pass it on.

Fear to die and become a drop
Disappearing into the sea?
Maybe the sea
And your drop
Is now

:- Doug.

What you say
What you think
Who you “are”
Flowing
Coming and going

:- Doug.

Have mercy
addressed to God
addressed to us
whoever has heart to hear

:- Doug.

Now is not some freeze frame
Rather of the whole flow
Flowing coming and going all

:- Doug.

We cannot say anything de-finite
About the in-finite

:- Doug.

Banks and flow and waters
Rocks and sand and human minds
What makes a river?

:- Doug.

Mighty river, many sources
drops and rivulets add
does it come from these
or is it by the sea
drawn?

:- Doug.

Can we meet a G
of a different shape
of a larger color?

:- Doug.

We don’t make up the universe
The universe makes up us

:- Doug.

any grain is the seashore
any drop is the ocean
any molecule the cloud
who but us
the wind?

:- Doug.
