Making It Up As I Go Along #520


The return of Magnetic Poetry.  Ten years ago, my parents gave me a book with magnetic words you can arrange either within a magnetic page of the book or on a refrigerator.    Since moving to Ottawa, the book has been packed away.  But now, with a mini stand alone freezer in my basement, I’ve put the words up on there and now can go sit Indian Style in front of the freezer and make….

MAGNETIC POETRY!!!

1.
After immense bruising
Slice through glass
Building love
She consumes him

2.
People want summer morning
Tendril’d Tongue Man is here
Wild cracked slender secrets
Put blossoms on dirty dark skin
Evening wind staggers off
To smell the bouquet of a dry red burn

3.
Use up
Shower song
Or
Work away
And
See blue for
A minute

THURSDAY…
--- Awake at 3:10 in the morning and day shift starts off on the wrong foot.
--- Fairly busy day… pretty run down doing it… but make it.
--- Next door is sold.  We’ll see who the new neighbours will be.

FRIDAY…
--- Slept well and that makes a world of difference.  Fairly quiet day at work though.

SATURDAY…
--- Do a walk… get in the nap… work the night.  Pretty quiet Saturday.
--- Drops to about 5 degrees tonight.  Fall is here.

SUNDAY…
--- Wake for good around 11:00.  Lay low around the house.

MONDAY…
--- Home shortly after 6:00… have to stay up for shutter measurements.  He arrives around 7:30 and is gone again just before 8:00.  Bed calls then and I’m there until about twenty to 1:00. 
--- Hour walk and BBQ turkey burgers.

TUESDAY…
--- Good sleep.  Has to be mentioned because this is only the second good one in several weeks.  Lots of 4-5 hour nights lately.
--- Rainy day.  Pouring for much of it.  So I’m in the house all day… fiddle with the old laptop, updating things on it.  Some reading… some TV… a mom supper. One of her home made chili’s and one of her home made apple crisps for dessert.

WEDNESDAY…
--- Walk.  Softball night.  We win pretty big tonight.  I still barely touch a ball in the field.  It’s been that way for about a month.  Two balls hit to me most games… no matter if I’m playing 3rd, 2nd, OF… it doesn’t matter.
