day after full moon


i've always loved the day after
the full moon; this snow moon
is no exception to my rule

as scattered mop strands
begin to unite in one useful
operative verb: to clean

requires a working mop,
a focus without distraction
is a seed germinating

in the darkened circle of willis:
that drive around-allowing
thoughts, to be re-directed

as pink himalayan sea salt
becomes one with the broth-
adding flavour, yet cannot help

but change itself-
the pink disappears..
(to where we need not care)

hands that heal others cannot
help but be healed on touch's
yielding surface of spongy kindness

laws of chemistry, blurred
by the innate  kindness(es)
of others who are thinking

of waves swelling, and water fowl
fear nothing-- but only wish space
to wiggle flap laugh
