broiga and an abandoned joey who he named roger.
at the kangaroo rescue sanctuary in alice springs
now.
‘here’s my little boy roger today at sunset. he is standing on his tail, muscles flexed, looking me in the eye and ready to box! big male kangaroos are expert kick boxers. enjoy your boxing day.’

today a little girl bought her own book with her own allowance money.
“does she always spend her allowance money on books?”
“every week,” her mom said.

and i am very happy today
as i imagine
this is what it looks like outside.
and then i will go outside.
and i will keep imagining.
and in a few months
it will look like this
and then i will
praise the power
of the imagination
for making things come true.
we honor him with the words and life of another.
or does anyone else
see the irony
in
a 10-minute limit
for parking
at a post office?
why do they
threaten us
with an
unknown
punishment
(maybe having to work a shift there?)
if we are
still parked in their lot
after 10 minutes
and then
force us
to stand in line
for 45 minutes?

the federal government spends millions to run the Postal Service.
i could lose your mail for half of that.

nacho the cat not the food
isn’t spending much time
worrying about life
he’s got better things to do
adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.

i’ve been wondering.
were
greenland and iceland
somehow
mixed up in the naming process?
was the paperwork confusing?
did no one
catch the error until it was too late?
did someone
not have their glasses on?
was there a translation issue?
why did they not fix it ?
my theory is
that it would have been
too expensive and too much bother
to change all of the logos on the cocktail napkins
once they had already been printed.

a few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. but though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease.
