23.5

holds much of the difference

from seasons to solstices

rituals and bringing

green to gray

sound to silence

"A single move in a single moment changes everything. Choose the right action at the right moment. Timing's everything."

Frost's art

deep in my blood

My own name still

looks strange in Latin

But this I recognize

it's home

Notice gifts from the Universe

what were you given yesterday

what's already received today

Through that big smile, awe

and gratitude

all the stars will come down to you

Eyes closed, I found memories

kitchen table, chair with tools underneath

my parents' legs, my brother's stroller

my back's silhouette to viewer

I picked them up like thin weightless tiles

tried to melt them in a white fire

hoping to repurpose some emotions

Me resisted this small start (art)

But I look forward to being me

without tiles of the past

The transformation of the cat

through curiosity
