Headway

Thoughts percolate

over days,

weeks, years,

wait impetus

to arrive

like muse

finding me

because of

my routine,

laying groundwork

creating space

each morning

while visioning

what's next

in words

wanting expression,

no different

than efforts

toward projects

being propelled

by details

simmering aromatically,

condensing uniquely,

specifically designed

for situation,

your desire,

making headway.

Loose Ends

7/28/09

Like nerve ganglia,

or octopus arms,

moving on own

sparking and using

energy without coordination

as separate entities,

I can view

my unfinished business,

all that's undone

needing focused attention

and little actions,

with calm consciousness

to make difference

in present condition,

today, more opportunities

for real progress

trusting the perfection

of every thought,

intuition, feeling, sense

that points direction,

calls me forward,

shows the way

while unleashing joy

when checking results

once evening falls

ending effort to

complete loose ends.
