her mystery
ran away
catightup
as it was
in the heady scent
of his
welcome hoihe smile
unfolding
soft as rain kissed
rose petals
she
lit it
enfolded him
in
possibility’^
suggestion
till
yesterday’s cautions
dissipated

Where do I sleep?
Laid down in doorway.........Told to move
Where do I sleep?
Raining, went under the bridge.....Move or get a ticket
Where do I sleep?
Cold, but not cold enough for the shelters to open
Where do I sleep?
. Can’t put up a teftt illegally....Go to jail if I do
Where do I sleep?
Tell me does anyone care?
Where do I sleep?

Infinite possibilities.
Only one future.
Unbounded abilities.
Healing a suture, j
Expansion of chaos.
Ascent into anarchy.
Chance is a coin toss.
Caste, a hierarchy.
Fate is a path, Fortune, an illusion.
Destiny is math.
Only one conclusion.
Capital is a myth.
Renounce your belief.
It will cease to exist.
Burn a dollar like a leaf.
To maximize utility.
You can’t eat money.
It’s their facility.
It’s their milk and honey.
This product we don’t need.
It’s fiction of power.
It’s a falsehood of greed.
It’s a toxic shower.
We need, to wash the Earth clean.
Remove the seed of fear.
Begin to trust the unseen.
And all will come clear.
I’m not sure how I know.
So I could be wrong.
But there’s got to be a better way
than the one we’ve been taking all along
