"Law, say the gardeners, is the sun,
Law is the one
All Gardeners obey
To-morrow, yesterday, to-day."

When every picture

tell a story

and every story

has interest

one remembers

one is not alone

and not the only one

struggling, suffering,

rejoicing or weeping.

After a hot sleepless night, I woke hearing Leonard Cohen singing in my head "Democracy is Coming to the USA" and weeping. That was around 6 a.m. After a bit of tea, I crawled back under the covers and didn't emerge again till 5 p.m. Since then, I've been reading horrendous news on the laptop till it got too hot to touch
(the laptop and the news)

I wrote "Wrap me in cabbage roses and many cloth flowers." Tried to make a poem of it, but failed to find the words. Unfocused as this photograph, I put it aside.

Note
"No Worries" is what Marvin Rosenberg always said during those yoga classes I attended years ago and it still works to calm my fevered brain.
