Reading T'ao Chien on the ferry in the San Juan Islands



Orcas to San Juan &
back wind
steady sun
bleached water stretching
to Canada & even
to Russia where Putin's bald
head rises flies
into Alaskan sky this sea
wipes out nation re-
minds the spirit new
thought no
thought everything changing
nothing
but light

Yes! A poem. Lovely and I loved the rhythm. Felt like I was on a boat.

Loved your anxiety piece to Ren, too. Claim my anxious spirit, or, drink tea.

We're just in the free fall before everything changes. I'm hopeful, not scared.
