midnight insight

My son's voice woke me
thunder and flashing lightnight (electric weather fronts clashing)
in time to catch the dream
in time to hear the answer to the question
I'd posed Bear the night before.

I am the one who helps find
a way
a part
a solution
a voice
a vocation
a comfort
an ear
time, direction, trust, acceptance, love

that is my purpose
Finding.



Dream
Backwards

Up back thru the scaffolding (daffodils)
Lester is Marjorie as a man he
has bad needs I mean knees.
He gets down on one to help me over
I scold him lovingly

A little girl in a program that we adopt
(adopt a highway)
Tingley and Sheppard tell me about her

Food from the instabank machine
food from the Teller

Warm Tuna or Salmon Salad sandwiches
Some days better than others

Pregnant pause

There is an air of anticipication in the lobby

the parents/chaperones of the large group of school children are milling about awaiting the children, now 20 minutes late.

I await just one. a girl. another 4 months or so...
