Festival Ready

"I like to race through the shrubs

and festoon myself with vines

I call it hippie chic(k),
Mama!!"

After Hours

The strange demands of the day die
leaving the way a sigh does,
the breath never to return

This pumpkin moon follows
peeping at us at every turn--
part eye, part bullseye

I pull down the book of myself
skimming--I know I should
be farther along by now

Rosé-Colored Glasses

Some G/F time with LD, ML, and LW at Lake Lansing.

(Lots of secrets, babies, and baby talk.)

And now Mamma Mia #1 with my Nu and my Mama

(prepping for #2 at the cinema tomorrow).

Resonance

Before the Fall

Mackinaw

Current mood:



Because we drove seven hours
to see a bridge.



Mom's been fascinated by it for years now
and today was a lovely day for it.

I just couldn't get them in a row :)

I do, however, love them 

just hanging out there on the white water 

like it ain't no thang...

Still trying to do all the things

before August is here.

Or at least two?

Two moments

Morning Lotus with L at MSU

and singing "Our World is One World" with Nu at UU.

Backstage Fanboy Pics

Abdul El-Sayed and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

From my very own similarly-hyphenated
