Eddies swirl, whispering,
Gossiping about the boats
Flat-bottomed, deep-helmed
Passing above, making the
Ripples that collide east to
West across their paths. The
Water is calm and wild all
In one, and the gossip, as
Gossip will, never slows.
Interesting intuitive intriguing
Riveting revelatory restorative
Marvelous mystifying magical
Ambiguous ambitious aspiring
Inspiring revolutionary divine
You may not be as enthralled
In these heavenly aureola as I.
What have you been putting off doing? Why?
Later. Not now.
Time's not right.
Waiting for the
Sign, the omen
The wow. Then
It'll be the moment
The time, ripe, and
Ready. It's a go. When
The time's right,
You just know.
Your life without a computer: what does it look like?
Imagine. No Google with which to
Google my symptoms, the hours at
A nearby store. No way to know the
Unknown and unknowable or long
Forgotten facts of it all. Knowledge
Is power. It gives me an edge. Or a
Heads up. What do I need to know?
What details of your life could you pay more attention to?
You might think finances, that's a little
Detail she's not attentive to, and let's be
Honest, that kind of inattention can cost.
Details sometimes exasperate and leave
Me wishing for less. Let's be honest, still
And again, details can overwhelm so you
Look away, ignoring the important minutia
Honestly, lack of attention can be costly.
Convergence at a distance confuses
The mind's eye, maybe even the eye
Plain and simple, although there is
Nothing simple [or plain] about it,
The eye is complex and complicated.
The bridges converging to the north
Merge and blend running at parallel
Tracks and turns, the shapes and the
Angles unique, distinctly different,
Each going its own way, whichever
Road it follows in a swoop or a semi
Circle, straight or narrow, there's a
Twist too, but you are too far away
And the converging roads confuse
What’s the trait you value most about yourself?
Am I happy with myself?
Do I benefit from the doubt?
Is there a doubt? What is
The benefit? Splitting the
Difference: What difference
Will it make? Curious, isn't
It? I am happiest, no doubt,
When my curiosity piques.
Which topics would you like to be more informed about?
I want to know it all, but who Has the time to be that wise or All-knowing. It may take effort I can't expend; find too hard to Do. I like sharing short bits of Esoteric information I release Off a short leash to a surprised Audience or one that's prepared Perhaps better than I and with A deeper understanding. Whys And wherefores escape me as I navigate a wealth of knowledge I don't truly own or possess, but Just skirt around and touch upon.
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.
Lessons deferred from life's great
Smorgasbord of thought, we feast
Off a table of ideas and philosophy,
Wondering what it is we should know.
Knowing what I know now that I did
Not know then. So hard to distinguish
Lessons learned from those deferred.
Wish I knew which is which, what is
What. Lesson learned. Is it too late?
What are your favorite types of foods?
Spaghetti, (give a little bow), meet sauce.
Sauce softens the passage and makes a path
Smoother. Pasta craves its sauce for flavor,
I guess I do, too. Meat sauce or just olive oil or
Butter and cheese. Spaghetti, meet sauce.
Tamara, really
