Perhaps it is
some sort of survivor’s guilt
that the fractured fragments
the twisted tableaux of warped memories
those bêtes noires barely contained within your brain,
burst in sullen silence, tremulous terror, or
most disturbing, that zombie calm
of a human automaton.
Perhaps it is
just chemistry asserting its superiority:
neuro-biology exposing itself
as a short-circuiting electric conduit
for daily conduct.
Perhaps it is
an allegory for transformation
or
perhaps it is
futility that demonstrates fallibility
and ultimately, profound humility.

Very deep, Mrs. Bird!
How have you been doing in are great white north?
And the snow, is there any?
Within the big city of Vancouver, the only snow we see is on the North-Shore Mountains!

Ick Medicine! No way?
Yyy Mrs. Bird, thinking out of the box?

I’ve just been reading about deconstruction and Jaques Derrida. “When reading the word ‘house’ some will see other houses, some will see contrast, shed, mansion, office block.” I’m with the latter, especially with your poetry. And I just love the alliteration.
What a coincidence! Last night I was reading Carl Leggo discussing Derrida! (on the subject of life writing). It was the first time I’d heard of him.
Thanks, Howard.
I found this:

The first 4 pages are general and interesting, and then he goes into deconstruction of legal writings. Too much for me.
You could print it out and read it to the baby goats!
or feed it to the baby goats, perhaps?
Lovely flow
Thank you.
Being energy fields, ourselves, there is great truth to the idea that we can heal ourselves with consistent positive thought.
Considering that the doctor gave my mother 2 weeks to live and told her she’d never walk again on Dec 2nd, 2015 after she had a severe stroke and lost her left side, and she told him that was NOT the way it was going to be, and moved back into her house on her own 2 feet to live alone again this week, I can’t say I disagree!
