Waves
~~~~~~~~


What’s in a wave?


When one thinks about ships

In the night in passing, there

Is a mention of distant voice

Then a silence and again the

Darkness


Ants on en passant have a wee

Tete a tete, but modern humans

Lost what was one a reflexive

Impulse.


It is why, while on this caravanserai

I take the time to notice those coming

On the opposite side and bid a brief

But meaningful recognition of their

Courageous expeditions to where

We had just been (and deserted).






13th April 2023.

On the road to Assisi.



Ps.

A dog can detect prostate cancer

And is reputed to be 98% accurate.


Cat’s on the other hand are capable

Of a 100%, but they'd rather watch

You die,
