As every day rolls in
So clearly new to me
I realize the ever changing
Neophyte I am to life
And still will be.

New To Me
Life and love
Strut What?
Photo: Dvora Freedman
Give a hand
Put a stop.
Help the weak
To step up.
See beyond
Outward bluff.
For in the race
To strut stuff,
Truth is often
Enough.

Dance Gingerly

Dance gingerly into the hearts
Of others.
They are the home
Of someone’s soul.
Dance delicately
In the space
That is between
Yourself
And others.
Dance gently ever more
Inside your own.

She faced the sea’s relentless roil, the churning, fuming foam.
She found a quiet in the space
Between the breath of waves, a home.

The Paths of Time

In passing we will know
The paths of time
The way to grow:
The to and fro
The high
The low
The good
The woe
The ebb
The flow.

Un-Faint Yourself
When woodwork calls
Do not fade in.
When worry weighs
And doubt still gleams:
Color yourself a bolder hue.
Be seen.
Be heard.
Be you!
This year marks 100 years to the first time women were allowed to vote in New York. It led the way to the 19th Amendment and women’s constitutional right to vote.
There are still those who try to suppress votes. There were always those who tried to put others down for wanting equal rights and for seeking access to those rights. Do not let others demonize you for having a voice. Speak up for those who can’t. Seriously: if you can, vote!
For more reasons to vote … Here are some (of the LESS graphic) historic caricature images that were used to shame, insult, threaten, and generally dissuade women from voting.

Phantom Panacea
Photo: Inbar Asif
Do not insist
An action is not worthy
If it does not prevent
All woe.
Demanding a panacea
By claiming
Partial remedies contemptible,
Is a straw man argument
Meant to scare away
The very possibility
Of actual repair.

Beware the prod
When arrows nod.
Their seeming prompt
May in fact be
The footprints stomped
To show the real way
Out the swamp.

There is no substitute
For you.
No proxy
To your spirit.
