Do you need time?
Time, it's of the essence.
Time, it's elusive. Time is
What we crave or dream
On. We waste it or hoard
It, lose it, or gain it. Time
To work. Time to play. We
Fill the hours as we can.
They go too fast. They go
Way slow. Time, it's ours.
Time is hours. Tick. Tick.
Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.
Holiday cheer
The holiday's
Near, ya hear?
Celebrate with
Corks a-poppin'
Merriment and
Lots of hopping
Life is for the
Celebrant. Life
Is what we hail.
And a life fit and
Hale is hearty.
A heartfelt life.
One to cheer
And say hear-
Hear. Cheers
To that. To life.
What’s something you believe everyone should know.
Ignorance, is it really bliss?
The less you know, the more
You miss. Know truth from
Lies and lies from fantasies
Appreciate fiction, but live a
Life that's real. Sure, it's true,
Sometimes, facts are stranger
Than anything you could make
Up. Then there's the surreal, too.
You say to yourself to your friends
To any interlocutor "you know
You just can't make this stuff up."
But ignorance? Nah leave it behind.
Bliss is in the knowing, knowledge
It's powerful and will give you joy.
How much would you pay to go to the moon?
Is it worth a penny, as it might be
For your thoughts, or millions as
In "it is out of reach and far away?"
Your thoughts are very lofty if you
Are focused on the moon. For some
Of us just navigating the earth is
Challenge enough, and that doesn't
Require packing for the unfamiliar
Atmosphere of a distant delicate
Moon, cold and yet still romantic.
Our moon is symbolic of all things
Love and loving. Lovers meet below
A blue moon or celebrate a yellow
One. Its phases are phrases of awe
And praise. Full moon or crescent
Where will you land? Will you go?
What are you most proud of in your life?
When I peek back, through some poems
I have listed, the skill -of some of them-
Pleases and surprises. I hope for this kind
Of success. I look for the kind of skill I find
In these. I am proud to have achieved it.
When I look back to see everything fit,
I feel accomplished. I experience pride.
Pride of authorship. Proud. Satisfied.
I wrote this. And that. With skill so I know
I have succeeded. I wrote it and it's good.
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.
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.
Tamara, really
