I saw God sitting next to a tree. The rock waved. Asked about how things have been. When being seen and having a wave wasn’t so difficult to accomplish. One smile at a time, during Covid-war, a mask wasn’t enough to stop the kids at school from wanting to run. And run. and run they did until one of them opened the door, freely with no mask awaiting his tongue, “This is Fucking awesome.”

The kid was mine. He was five.
Love life. That’s what we have.

Saw a man today
wheeling a grill
down a crowded street
it was raining
His face was tight
He looked homeless,
but with a grill
I wanted to know his story
The rain picked up.
the line of vehicles too
in my rear view mirror
I watched him push
the grill into the woods
he stumbled at first
I wanted to praise him.
I said a prayer

That’s a big fucking yesterday
looking through the mirror

If you rely on manipulation rather than truth, you are weak.

What if we’re on replay
-M. Taggart
The clouds are out,
and I’m watching them.
It’ll all change soon,
but for now,
I’m here.
-M. Taggart
