we only want
we only wait
wondering if
it is possible
we only will
until we try
we are only
human
there are only
possibilities

until we try

Sunday 6:32 a.m.
The streetcar does not come
soon enough. A stellar silence
marks a morning where
nothing happens soon enough.
Sunday 6:32 a.m., neither
a day of rest or recompense,
an unremarkable familiarity
blesses these dirty city streets.
Mornings seem gentle when
so few are around to take in
the unlimited inactivity.01/10/2023 j.g.l.

ask
Consider communication, questions,
concerns, topics of conversation
(in-depth or superficial):
stay informed. Look at it all
from every angle. Ask or inquire.
All answers come with questions.
Have that conversation.

daily
Dates:
the important ones
you remember,
before and after.Consequential
occasions.Some days are
everyday, some
are more
than you think,
recollect, or
give yourself
credit for.Every day
is not
what it seems;
the dates change
daily.You change,
not as noticeably
or as frequently
as the pages of a
calendar or agenda.You do
what you have to do.Time is more
than a collection
of days
and dates.01/03/2023 j.g.l.

slow down
We all seem to be rushing
somewhere. The time goes
so fast, and there never seems
to be enough of it.
It comes with the season
and the obligations and
commitments we, many times,
bring upon ourselves.
In the midst of the madness,
find a moment or two for
stillness. Take a bit of time
to slow down.
Do what you are doing with
more attention and greater
intention.
Clarity is accomplished at a
reduced speed, with less
pressure, and more pleasure.© 2015 j.g. lewis
