Poem: January 1, 2023

New Year’s Day

Today the work

is imagining the days ahead-

a waking dream in which

we wander through our hopes

for ourselves and let loose

this crusty psychological 

accumulation.


Today is a long stretch

Of a day. Today is 

a warm cat napping in our lap.

Today is a tall glass of clear water,

effortless and essential,

a winding tide that laps

at the best and gentle part of us.
