(hannah did all the work)
for you to order the little book about shifu and printing,
if you wish.
hannah has it here and at the new site (which i haven't yet sorted out).
i've sent out one already
and the paypal thing is working.
(thank you, betsy!)
i seem to have emerged from a funk
a change,
a tilting,
and now, well now
i have my sea legs
for a bit.
i returned to the place i call home last night:
and this was above the little porch.
it was beautiful.
the night was full of frogs songs
and the sound of a few birds,
woodcock, my favorite.
in the night,
for the second one running
for the second one running
i was awakened around 3:00
by a loud bird sound
i think.
one or two calls
and that was all.
am i dreaming owl hunts?
and we went out this morning
to this marsh.
to this marsh.
found a new emergence.
i was thinking turtle thoughts
wondering how it is to be
turtle with the thick reptilian armor
turtle with the thick reptilian armor
while this soft human skin was feasted
by mosquitoes.
no worries,
escape happened fast.
no turtles.
yet.
two events are coming up for me:
then retirement
a special wedding, then
