SEDIMENT

Small tiny pieces of wine - dregs -

settling at the bottom of the glass

or bottle, sometimes resting there -

annoying the look of things -

like the remains of the feelings

we have - after some conversations -

hearing, saying things we wished

weren't said in the first place.

Thought for today: 

“I cannot admit that any man born … has either the knowledge or authority to tell other men … what God’s purposes are." 

Judge Ben B. Lindsey

GUTTER

On the edge, almost always unnoticed,

the gutters along the edge of our roof.

That is till they get clogged or filled

with leaves or “stuff” and water backs

up sometimes into our walls or homes.

Me, you, when our gut gets backed up

with “stuff”:  regrets, resentments,

hurts:  the consequences of our neglects.
