I’m Put In A Position

I’m put in a position.
Not the kind of position that makes me scream, “Please do that again!”
But a position that makes me think twice.
Think twice about a choice I made a long time ago, if time were important.
If only a choice could be unraveled by time.

I’m put in a position.
From which I would prefer to transition.
To another state of mind.
A mind I care not to state.

I’m put in a position.
Where I cannot stay but prefer not to go.
If only the invitations would cease their existence.
If only my desire could bare my resistance. 

I’m put in a position.

Dog Lovers Make For Good People

Sometimes little people use big words.
Sometimes big words mask little problems.
Sometimes little problems stem from big voids.
Sometimes big voids create little comfort.

Then, one day, someone spelled god backwards.

Sometimes great love needs no words.
Sometimes no words complement great walks.
Sometimes great walks follow unusual paths.
Sometimes unusual paths lead to great friends.

Zahir Zamora and the Cat Conversation

Zahir happily danced across the apartment when she heard the phone ring.

“Hello, this is Zahir.”

“Hi Zahir, it’s Nancy.”

“Oh hey Nancy, how are you?”

“I’m fine. What are you up to?”

“I was just having a highly intellectual conversation with the two cats that live here.”

“With who?”

“The cats. Danielson and Sophie. Although Danielson was carrying most of the conversation. Sophie’s not much of a talker. She brings up some good points occasionally. It gets Danielson all riled up.”

“Where are you?”

“At home.”

“I see.”

“Yeah I was having trouble with my internet connection and Danielson made a very suggestive comment about how it’s useless to try and conquer the damn thing seeing as it is becoming obsolete.”

“The internet?”

“Yeah, that’s exactly what I said. So I turned to him and said, ‘what the hell are you talking about?’ And he tells me that our system of world wide communication is such a mess and that we should take a few lessons from the cats.”

“Lessons on … the internet?

“Lessons on more capable internet programs that are less focused on technological gadgetry and more focused on magnetic energy vibrations. Apparently the cats have some sort of internal communication system that is functional around the world. He referred to it as the ‘intercat’ system.

“Daniel?”

“Danielson, his name is Danielson.  It’s Ukranian… I think.”

“Danielson talks to you?”

“Yeah! The cat won’t shut up. He’s always going on and on about how cats just do everything better. I would try to argue with him but since I can’t get the damn internet to work I can’t really back up my own arguments. He just likes to debate.

“And Sophie?”

“Sophie’s cool. I mean she shuts him down every once in a while. Like he’ll get on his big soap box about what’s wrong with the human sewage system and how we should all just really explore using a litter box because it’s far more biodegradable for the amount of waste we create and Sophie will just walk by and swat him on the nose and he just shuts up.”

“She hits him?”

“I wouldn’t say hit. More like a lite slap. But it’ll get him to quiet down, even though I can hear him grumbling as he walks out the door. Sophie can’t really hear his grumbling anymore because she’s loosing her hearing. But I know she gets just as sick of his pretentious babbling as I do. Sophie’s pretty cool.”

“Oh.”

“So…what’s up Nancy. It’s a rare pleasure to receive a call from you. How are you?”

“Oh, just blowing up like a balloon.”

“Is it kicking yet?”

“Yes.  A lot.”

“Hold on a sec…. hey Nancy?”

“Yes?”

“Danielson said if it’s a boy you should name him Danielson.”

 

Concept of a Compassion

It’s a pity to turn a page and not see the words
the mind has put to paper.
Oh, but to spend my time reading.
It’s a shame to turn a shoulder and not see the smiles
the heart has drawn to laughter.
Oh, but to spend my time observing.
It’s a burden to turn a back and not see the love
the arms have held so bravely.
Oh, but to spend my time embracing.
