When you feel important

AsideJune 7, 2023June 7, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper5 Comments

Look for yourself in yesterdays footprints The wind has erased your passing Look for yourself in the thoughts that you had a year ago You are not there you barely remember what you had for breakfast last Tuesday We wake, we think thoughts and we journey over the day The hills, the valleys Emotional highs […]

What is the covenant and what is the ark? Is it simply an agreement made with the heart?

AsideJune 2, 2023May 31, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper18 Comments

In the gap between this task and another and this thought and the next one and the concern I have for this and that other thing which might occur and all of this mental weight and the physical burden the sheer enormity of stuff to do Is there any space for love? And is loving […]

Ask the stars

AsideMay 21, 2023May 21, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper12 Comments

To know how to live Don’t ask humans Ask the stars I wish I knew them Many are dead and already gone And yet their light continues on Perhaps in that fact Is the kernel of truth Live so what you leave burns forward too Our bodies are fragile and have to die But who […]

Prisoner Release Program

AsideMay 19, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper4 Comments

I wish I had never developed this thing Now it’s grown so big It is difficult to get rid of I wish when it first entered my heart At the very start I had the wisdom back then to drop it I’ve been feeding it now For twenty-five years It’s heavy It’s big And it […]

Not too much, just a little

AsideMay 15, 2023May 16, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper9 Comments

There is a lot in me Far too much to contain at times It can come out in “wrong” ways if I let it So when I feel too much And can no longer expand without busting I take myself off And breathe into vast spaces that can hold me And then I can go […]

Blue is a colour, not a feeling

AsideMarch 10, 2023March 10, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper13 Comments

The bluer the sky The bluer the sea I dwell in the sliver, in between And I am not blue Not even a bit I drift on the tide Breathing *After my morning spent snorkeling, I sat watching the water change colour in tune with the sun sparking in and out from behind clouds. As […]

Mending old wounds

AsideMarch 9, 2023March 9, 2023 AthousandbitsofpaperLeave a comment

My shadow is stitched to my foot All that is black and self defeating All the rot Follows me I could cut it off, but then I would never know where it is hiding It could spring from the trees on a perfect summers evening And ambush my feelings Bring me low A lightening blow […]

Being present is more delightful then being away

AsideFebruary 18, 2023February 17, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper14 Comments

We can go away Run away Walk away Drive away Away away away And yet, everything follows as if packed in a bag on purpose It springs out as soon as we answer the phone The biggest mistake then Was to think it could ever be different And as I watched his happy expression drain […]

The frame in which we find our selves

AsideFebruary 4, 2023February 3, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper11 Comments

“Your energy is sacred” The words hit me from a sign in a shop that I had been wandering around in on holidays. It was a beautiful shop. The kind full of heavy linen, textures, candles, delicious aromas, chunky chrystals, natural fibres. Everything was in muted tones of cream, brown, auburn, black, white, beige. Tassles. […]

This time last year
