Social rules are, for me, unseen
But I cause hurts that I didn’t mean
Then mourn for what might-have-been

That is fair. Timing matters.

But I want to do the responses justice, and that will take time I don't have right now, due to other important commitments.

My heart always feels full, but definitely brighter.

And my apology is a Canadian way of saying "I want to be considerate of you while I assert myself!" 🇨🇦 🍁 🫶

Ah, I see. I can give some answers for that question...but only if and when you want and are in a place to receive them.

This is timely...but why do some get the anesthetic and others of us don't?

Moorhen, Moorhen,
don’t let your Royal Navy status
make you a snoot
Moorhen, Moorhen,
you’re still cousin to the old
American Coot

Unfortunately, there wasn't a single coot out on the local pond today, so my photo is only signage.

What could be worse than
Cruelty and injustice?
When none clash with them.

I'm glad the rock didn't literally speak to you, but kinda wish it did, because then maybe you could teach me their language. Which would also be odd, but SO cool! 🗿

What is it about poets? 😜(Please, do tell me!)

We all have fault lines -
They're where we see
Ways to shift for better
Intentionally
You can be petrified
And together, we'll sing
Fault lines make #stone

You can even make ways in many senses!
visual senses
audio senses
stinky senses
tasty senses
touchy-feely senses
virtual senses
physical senses
metaphysical senses
and one of my favourites,
nonsenses!
