SNAPSHOTS OF OUR LIVES DAY FOUR AND (ONE OF SOMEONE ELSES- Charles Marsh).

SNAPSHOTS OF OUR LIVES DAY FOUR AND (ONE OF SOMEONE ELSES- Charles Marsh).


I

Little Dragonfly crawling up the wall

Slips to fall

struggling it inches up

Falls flying away.

II

Little Dragonfly trying to crawl up the wall

Music confuses its sights

It jumps to (too) inch a bit

Stumble,

Fly away.

Drinking coffee feels like managing my life.

Studiously working,

reviewing back pain statistics, love idioms, and   

Pronunciations of cash flow through bike shops with endless doors closing in front of faces,                 too many to remember.

Charles Marsh described by Jennet Conant:


“He was an enthusiastic proponent of plunging into life with both feet, committing oneself fully, damn the consequences. He championed a sort of super-American Whitmanesque belief in pure spirit, boundless possibility, and what he called that unshakable “bit of devine moving from the embryo to death in each of us.’”  From The Irregulars, Roald Dahl and the British Spy Ring in Wartime Washington page 24, by Jennet Conant .
