Postcard from Anna
Arrived in Tirana
You would love the mountains
and the food
Penultimatic
Mom and dad thought I was last
GOD saw different
Made me penultimatic

Eye
The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made them both. Proverbs 20:12
perception of the eye
not just what it sees
optical illusions trick of the eye
paralex vision
nearsighted
perception of the eye
what is there that is not seen
yet it is clear
knowing the invisible
God’s eye
________________
NaPoWriMo prompt from Theodore Roethke poem In a Dark Time – “In a dark time, the eye begins to see…….”
Beware the Boogeyman
so many ways to lure a mind away
some will go for candy
others for just a ride
it might be for friendship
or one last adventure
it was only going to be
around the block
ended up being forever
who is your boogeyman
running you off the road
promises of what you want to hear
will get you when he can
beware the boogeyman

Postcard from Anna
Just arrived in Athens
At dawn I will see Areopagus
where Paul preached the unknown GOD
Cleaning Out the Cupboards
I discover
vegan brownies
all that is required
flour
sugar
cocoa powder
baking powder
salt
oil and water
vanilla
mix
bake in super hot oven
so happy
________________
I am challenging myself to see how long I can go without going to the grocery store. It has been a week. Now that I have my brownies I’m good for maybe another week.
Rat Smell
how does a rat smell
twitch of the nose
whiskers along the rafters
it knows you are there
as it hurries past
often on its guard
it is the cat
that smells
a rat
Word Tumble
Let words tumble
Mountains rumble
Papers crumble
People grumble
Drop a fumble
Forever humble
In this jumble
Hear the mumble
Not to stumble
Okay to bumble
