on chinchweed’s gold flame.

Wings like brushstrokes glide,
painted lady on the breeze —
petals bow in awe.

Is of multitudes.

Even More Than Hope: Painted Lady Butterflies
Like spirits, they will dart across our path
in drifts, and zig-zag past our cheeks and hands
just out of reach, and whirling toward a land
far north of us, by predetermined math.
It seems a miracle, winged migration—
almost as hard to fathom as moon flight.
What tiny compass guides them day and night
in rivers of raw determination?
Their journey symbolizes more than hope:
They breathe into each moment the belief
that happiness as real and bright as wings
is just ahead … and therefore we can cope,
and fill heavy hearts with newfound lightness,
and bathe a moment more in their brightness.

A bright afternoon
no vultures circling
only butterflies
landing briefly
as if to change
the decision to land
yellows and reds
muscling their way
through leaves of green.

Painted Lady,
elixir of
colors
true love of
flowers
under exquisite
skies
in the shadow of
mountains
remembering all
goodbyes.

Society is like a stew.
If you don’t stir it up every once in a while
then a layer of scum floats to the top.

There is no time for despair,
no place for self-pity,
no need for silence,
no room for fear.
We speak,
we write,
we do language.
That is how civilizations heal.
