CHRISTMAS EVE
Christmas Eve is to sit.
with so much to do.
other for a moment.
“Phew. We have a place.”
And all will be well.

LEANINGS
we learn that others have their
leanings – like - liking chocolate
chip cookies or racism or being
on the far right or far left or they
avoid talking politics in the first
place or knowing who’s running
hurt or whom to remain silent
with – because they haven’t
figured out life or themselves yet.
That’s all. We all have our leanings.

YOU NEVER KNOW
You never know who the other person is.
You never know what their job is.
You never know who their kids are.
You never know where they are from.
You never know – if they wrote a book.
You never know if they ever played BINGO.
You never know till you ask them questions.

THE BIG PICTURE
2020 wasn’t all bad!
Tonight and these nights
near Christmas – Jupiter
and Saturn – are within 0.1
degrees to each other.
Yet they are 450 million miles apart.
The last time this happened
was 800 years ago and the next
time is going to be 2080. Not bad,
but I won’t be alive in 2080.
So tonight - obviously - I was out
there looking into the southwest sky.
Ugh! All was cloudy. All was gray.
Yet I knew from what I read, like life,
what I wasn’t seeing was right there.
