  by the turn of events

i read and read and read….look,  look,  look.     this is a once in a lifetime thing that's happening.   i want to know it in all its variations.   i want to understand what's happening.   and the day goes so quickly….    i thought i had a lot of time and suddenly noticed that it was an hour till evening feed…..eeeee,    noticed how i'd gotten lost in it all    and     i guess,     wanting to claim at least a little of my own mind,    i got the pencil and the drawing book   

for an hour then,   this.    at first fast moving lines but then the pencil lingered   and i grounded self here on this page.   Have no idea what i was drawing,   but the pencil knew.   I'll wake up to it tomorrow.

    Eyes are coming into focus, helping us to see, clear and and sweep away the debris of political muck, that has littered the land. A new sprout of connection and activism begins. On the left of the drawing, MIRA, (mira is the word look in Spanish), a stem with many tiny new leaves is rising up. Our young people are becoming aware that for the first time in a long time, they have opportunities and possibilities to make themselves heard, to accept their rightful place and join all of us, in the continuing job of building and maintaining democracy. The seeds have been planted, the roots are taking hold and we go on into the day, eyes wide open and clear…
