magnet in the rainbow
in the colors of the monarch
signal the voices you hear
when you are not
present with glowing eyes
and children in your ear

one child, the boy dark, vibrates on the ecuador
wide on the mountain high as rain
evaporate into disappearing
eventually
become the waterfall
to the magnet in the rainbow
in the color of the monarch
indigo

    The storm came over from Orlando today
    black, black sky, with purple lightning
    my spouse drove through it,
    then ahead of it and
    it followed him home
    I could see it across town as I drove to the airport
    the white flashes
    the visible cracks in the black
    and then the water too
    it came down
    for a while but then
    the darkness passed and all was
    one, huge, flat, hanging heavy cotton cloud
    covered the whole sky above the small stripe of light
    a narrow strip between life and the gray cover
    the storm left as quick as it came

    wow thank you godfather.

    I think I do it with 1/2 glass of wine
    and then writing down the unique words or phrases
    that "come to you" when you close your eyes or squint
    but not thinking specifically of any words, just receptive to them
    usually this is the way it works for me, anyway!
