1 • Prosthetics too large to be held by a single strap. Another attached to my back. Think reversed babybjorn. Green screened. Later to be “erased.” The horns/wings added in post too. Quite a character. Quite a production. Quite a wonderful group of humans to be surrounded by!

2 • Working in progress
Literally/figuratively
Acceptance spoken/acknowledged
Yet some things simply cannot
Accept anymore than understand
Feeling “in the moment”
Doesn’t always feel good
Doesn’t always feel right
Doesn’t always make sense
Loved the self
Stretched
Sweated out
Breathed thru
Yet here I lie cramping up
Trying to catch up when I have already fallen behind
With no resistance
The acceptance of what IS carries a painful lactic acid
Flushed down like a mighty turd
There it is...over there...sun’s shine down. #TheThingsThatTormentedMe #TheMostWereTheVeryThings #That ConnectedMeWithAllThePeople #WhoWereAlive #jamesbaldwin @blogogg

I say, “I love you.”
Then closes his eyes to rest.
He says, “It’s my lucky day!”
I repeat, “I love you.”
Then closes his eyes to rest.
He says, “Ohhhh, yes!”
When I ask a question he has no connection to anymore.
Then closes his eyes to rest.
He says, “Ohhh yes!”
When I ask, “Was that the most delicious meal you ever had?”
When I ask, “Did you dance and sing and have fun today?”
He says, “It’s my lucky day!”
I say, “No Dad. It is mine.” #dementia #sucks #SoLove’EmIfYaGot’Em @blogogg

5 • Searching for the fusang
Appassionata Sonata circles
The cotyledon of my memory
Found to replace an explanation
Of why to the what for the where
A book written counting down life
Its moments in words and fragments
Seedlings to germinate
Landing upside down
It will still find its way to right the wrong
In order to grow.
