THERE’S  MORE

 
Life is the add on’s – the more ….
 
Gravy, pepper, salt, ketchup, mustard:
we have to add on the add on’s to make
what we’re making tasty, more delicious.
 
Of course there’s more – a lot more.

MY  ME 

See me, you see my presence,
my face, my eyes, my edges,
but not my essence. Not yet ….
That takes time – lots of time.
Heck, at 81,  I don’t even  know
my me yet, but I have some glimpses,
that is - if you’re interested.
How about you? I see you.
But who are you?

“I make all my decisions on intuition.  I throw a spear into the darkness.  That is  intuition..  Then I must send an army into the darkness to find the spear.  That is intellect.”

IT  TAKES  TIME

 

Wood, marble, paper,
steel, leather, stone,
each with a different feel,
each with a different touch,
so too the people on my street,
so too the meanings we give to each other,
yet in certain ways we are all so different,
so it’s good to take the time to be with each other.

“Life is like a game of cards.  The hand that is dealt you represents determinism; they way you play it is free will.”
