December heat - All For Gardening
The last 'Hurrah' for the Lemon Drop peppers, along with a few more Midnight Snack tomatoes, which are still slowly ripening.Gardener (All For Gardening)
Beach
Ninth Avenue, maybe, or Eighth —
that doesn’t much matter. The Gulf
lies at the palm-shadowed end,
the hours giving way,
the day giving way,
the beach becoming the world
and the world, the beach.
Blinded, we laugh, walking
the startled sand, one compass
as good as another, salt
to left or right and, then,
the other way around.
Shall we swim? Later.

Reminder:
You can be both afraid and courageous at the same time.
You're doing the best that you can, and thats all you can ask of yourself.
When you're struggling, you will ask for help.
These feelings wont last forever.
You can always find something to be grateful for.
I'm proud of you
Unclench your jaw.
Relax your brow.
Go get a drink of water.
See if you've taken your meds
Eat something.
Doesn't matter what you look like right now, i think you look amazing.
Because you do.
You're a wonderful person.
And have this. 🫂🖤 you did great today. You made it through
Haze
The soldiers of that summer
did not sing. They had
the radio. They had Hendrix
sending them into
their haze, the haze of a war
that none saw beyond. We watched
them go. We named them to
forget them. Which ones did not
come back? Those, too, had names.
Do you remember them?

A black and white image depicts a person standing in a field of large, round objects. The person is dressed in a dark suit and appears to be offering one of the round objects forward with outstretched arms. The round objects are arranged closely together and dominate the foreground, appearing like large eggs or stones. The background is blurred, suggesting a vast number of similar objects stretching into the distance. Large, bold text is superimposed on the image, reading “DO YOU WANT AN EGG?”.
