NICE could be giving better clues
that it is working
for my taste
7 days is holding over Allentown
wiggling my way to freedom is distracting
That's me,
almost, but not quite
between prose and poetry
Might be three
I need abs from start to finish.
lower back, and stretching hamstrings.
I can not do weight bearing on my feet.
No 'on my toes' either
so you can amuse me with lots of balance stuff on balls.
7 days to cardio
TIVO is not ready for prime time.
When people come to me 6 months after the
purchase of a piece of electronics and
halfway through the install,
there is a reason for failure.
digital v analog phone
wired v wireless
phone v flash updates
they made all of the wrong decisions
cabernets = women
with proper tending
age = value
the number of people who
can afford and appreciate them
is inversely proportional
at a dead run
obligatory VA greenhouse purchase
Too much April sun,
rain would help this parade.
At a dead run
field trip
Nailed the landing
14 and still counting
fingers synapsed USB
not firewire yet
spelling shits but mind to HD network is better than
half-duplex.
Day 10 killed a large pile of dirt
Started on a larger pile of mulch.
It is so nice to be lifting something
lighter than soil.
NB- put the wheelbarrow on the wrong side
most of the time or you will end up with lopsided
biceps and shoulders.
day 11- it rained.
I looked at plants with
a major horticulturist
placed an order for 600-800 mums
Do you know what it takes to
grow that many mums? the specs?
BC has been working on
references/bibliography.
lit searches are amazing
compared to the months of
reading I did in the Indicus Medicus 30 years ago.
"Technolgy" really is amazing.
Today- we could use 4 days worth of
time between 8-12 am.
Car needs help, SSH needs more,
how to keep working on a p-resentation while
BC is gone, the bits must flow
even if BC is away for a while.
Day 8 went without a memorial
too fast, too little finished
Day 9 started early and will go late.
Hollyhock primary leaves have frilly edges
I got sunburned yesterday.
today field trip to get rid of some bugs by killing a tree.
Day 7
alyssum lifting the soil up,
there are so many little shoots growing.
zinnias, sunflowers, peas staring to show first shoots.
Maybe hollyhocks.
Got to keep light on them.
Behind the pool is done,
now the veggie beds are cleaned and ammended.
Next the colchicum bed
Spike was busy stalking a bluejay
while I was loading the wheelbarrow,
early this morning.
Need to finish the back
between work and email, today.
Not likely, but a goal.
Day 6
allysum up for 24 hours
zinnias, sunflowers, peas staring to show first shoots.
Got to keep light on them.
Nanny says:
4 days
4 flats of seeds
sunflowers, sweetpeas
datura
ornamental allium
my grandmother's nasturtium
will it germinate?
will any of them germinate?
is there any grass seed left outside?
I didn't see any this morning
from last weekend's efforts.
My personal festival
Cat thoughtfully chews
Wet grass surprise
The front porch is suddenly a basking place
Those stupid pussy willows are
everywoman's harbinger of summertime gardens
Even good things can be irritating.
Taxed by forms and children
Coffee instead of solid writing time
Warm, wet weather too heavy to enjoy
Board meetings keep me from GABAMediated excess
Countdown to maple pollen
Random rays, restive roots
Bump, bulge, bud, burst, bloom
Sweet sap; scented silk
Stretching
have got to sI stretch lots these days
The Triangle awaits
trim, rake, bag
wait for last year's bloom
to appear.
public works of a different scope
50 degrees
never patient
always expectanthopeful,
in no way sensible
anticipase mediated cascade: a real beginning
pace, tempo, speed, accelerate
cells: native or opportunistic
in the presence of heat, water and
substrates, divide; divide, divide -
no matter how many times they do it,
there is always more, not less.
let the college students know that finals are coming.
Time to develop a fever.
Nanny says:
Stop rreading otherr peoplle's away messsagess
Go outside Run 6 miles
Bike 30 miles
Garden all day every day
water plants
headhead flowers that need it
Don't expect human poetry in spring
Outside is much better
What is the intent of young men when they think of having children and
planning for their raising and education?
I don't think that it is just genes, I get a subtext of the world being worth learning
about.
That is woinderful.
I'm not impressed
If I have to shovel sometime today
there will be hell to pay.
It's April, not January.
OK I know I shouldn't get upset.
it took 5 minutes
and it is 50 degrees, out less than an hour later.

IM poetry
cat to pawn 4
lonely but consolidating
airborne not breathed
Subtlty where is thy sting
Do snowflakes think they are part of a conquering army.
Leaves do.
Snow follows leaves
apocalyptic soldiers defeated

shivered spring promise
no comfort, lugging car junk into the house
fire, tea, hugs, mail
21downs are in my reach
so to speak. I did them by 2's tonight.
I can tell that I will be able to do them by ones soon.
away
rain, snow, fires, sun
firewood at the ready for
the needs of surprise visitors.
folded laundry
neat start to today's ventures
feathers flying

winter hybernator? unique mystery?
wrong color, wrong expectation as the frame
paints the morning CRT refresh
error btwn optic nerve and phosphor
Jetlag on a sunny day
routines: time and place dependent
muscles need motion
do secret agents really stay still for hours at a time?
must be fiction.
I'm 52 and can't sit still most of the time
I did better this time in airports
scan for who knows what, terrorists in my hairpins?
boots and jacket.
What is with the laptop annoyance?
Pushups needed all around.
