Good chores

Wherever you (think you) are going: be bold, child.
Good Monday – good choice – good morning.

Down the rabbit hole: to actively wait for Godot,
to imagine Sisyphus happy,
to taste a fresh madeleine and… choke!
This is how they changed their minds.
Good Tuesday – good tune – good morning.

A sip of tea/ almond milk/ chlorophyll/ light…
to match the reactions and Light of a boy/ lady.
A sip of wonder – to share and combine.
Good Wednesday – good stream – good morning.

This perishable bliss!
This insatiable rapture
keeps stirring the primordial soup.
(Cutting edge entertainment reviews:
such an apparent (out of the) ordinary!)
The observer is satisfied.
Good Thursday – good split (of the universe) – good morning.

No one is supposed
to promise you anything.
You’ve got all the goodies. Savor them.
Good Friday – good taste – good morning.

How to release endorphins:
go on.
Good Saturday – good absence – good morning.

Family time:
everything brilliant – to do,
everyone brilliant – to hug;
all becomes is brilliant.
Good Sunday – good heartbeat – good morning.

Exit

Outside,
the cosmic birds are deliriously chanting –
the desert is raving, the dreams are expanding.
It’s 876564341 p.m.
and a little trouble occasionally unveils
the changing refinement of the heart,
the weight
of its glorious tales.
We are now midway
and this is the point of no return:
It’s our job to catch fire
And Their anguish to burn.
The rush of getting back keeps us going-
It’s our job to catch fire
for these Hearts to start glowing.
Red-hot charts –
Depicting hearts,
We’re navigating
Home.

Step softly

Oh, I’m being swallowed by
a magical burst of
worlds –
fluid load
of swans and pigs and pigs and swans
and Cheshire, celestial, feline peacocks
and lamias and centaurs and banshees and nereids and fauns and harpies
and unicorns
and Doppelgängers
and Everything-Nothing-Wandering-Kind,
(avoirdupois),
on my shoulders.
We carry what’s necessary,
that’s how we carry on.
That will do, thank you!
