Appetizers courtsey on the screen
Stacks of goodies scramble to the top;
Ooops! forgot the salt…
Bland fixings deleted.

Take out the trash.

It takes 5-7 hours to fly west from Baltimore to Salt Lake City. The flight holds over 130 people, plus small children. The Southwest seats have gotten smaller. They strive to have a full flight and arrive and depart on the minute.
Yesterday I was on a flight where the flight attendants turned on the light in the forward head so it appeared to be in use, and then no passengers were allowed to unfasten their seat belts to pee. Duh!
Meanwhile the attendants were rushing up and down the aisle with drinks and pretzels.
A one year old needed a diaper change, and the mother tried to accomplish this on the floor of the cabin.
Is the speed of flight compromising humanity?
Are we becoming electrons on a circuit?
data on a current?
cogs?
bullets?
Don’t ask the captain: his job is to turn the seat belt sign off and on.

Dragon rears her head at moon
Stars bless the pair;
Pair them in the light
Bed them in the sea.

Another night
in the waves.
Synchronicity.

From the green depths
arises monster gills-
seeking moonbeams
to soothe
his swaying thirst-
his restless curse.

“There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.”
Winston Churchill

Hoofing
snuggling
shuffling
prancing with the herd.

Snorting
whinnying
neighing
acapella song.

Thundering
rampaging
stampeding
mountainside throng.

Ribbon of road
snakes through canyons;
pleats for creeks
rises for pinnacles.

Then goes to bed in valleys
under aspen boughs
and coverlets of pine.

Fibonacci

This is my color rendering of Fibonacci’s math formula

And here is Joy Acey’s Fibonacci poem:
MY DOG
Bark,
BARK!
My dog
likes to bark.
Round and round she turns
then settles on the rug to sleep.

Today’s poem is a FIB–a poem based on Fibonacci’s number. Try writing your own FIB today.

Park City Greeting

Moose Welcome in Park City

Moose Welcome in Park City

Will the ski lift hold me?
Will your hot tubs overflow??
Will the pool be deep enough?
Will my herd hang low?

What will you feed us?
In the tabernacle halls?
Will you bring the elders
To decorate the stalls?

Blessings on the aspens
And the mountains white with snow;
Blessings on the Utah way
That blesses buck and doe.
