Wow! Isn’t it incredible what can be achieved with just one word! Which leads me on to ask, what next?

What about this goal, is it right for me?
Is it too challenging or too easy?
Have I unlocked my potential?
Is it achievable?

You Are Gravity

My chest holds one specific ache.
It sits, a stone I cannot shake.
Your name pulls tides I can’t resist.
The weight is fact. I drown unkissed.

“Could you be more ‘pacific?” Mike Tyson asks.

“Did you mean #specific, Mike?” I smirk.

That’s when the interview goes off the rails. The heavyweight champ’s fist blurs. I wake up, a suspended animation research subject in 2222 A.D.

I dedicate my life to “pacifism.”

Old habits can sneak back in & catch us off guard
A specific plan can help

Another tool to help achieve success is used in my world of health & fitness -U may have heard of it
A SMART goal can keep us focused & on track. S is for…

Like lightning I jump
Straight into #action I act
When I hear retching

A call to #action
Falls on too many deaf ears
Just like they want it

Same… but remember when our GPS was a poorly refolded map stuffed in the glove box?😂

The rain arrives new
touching every part of me
A clear purification
nature in #action
The sky opens wide
a vast unfolding presence
I acknowledge the rain
it stirs thought
and awakens my body
Not God I sense
but the universe alive
urging me to move
to dance as a symphony of grace.

Our cosmos
Is in trouble—
It’s builder’s
Getting bored

We sitting on
Shelf next to
His #action figures
Hoard

We’re just
A science project
That earned
A C+ score

Forced to clean
His dusty shelf
He knocks us
To the floor,

Then tosses us
In waste bin
Our Universe
No more…

" #Action!"
The director reddened when I coughed.
"Cut! Who the hell are you?!"
"I-"
"I don't care! You're fired! Get off my set!"
"But-"
The cast and crew began gathering, anticipating a Christian Bale blowup. When the lightning struck, nobody died.
One timeline adjustment down, 347 to go.

Split into many
Factions, yet unified by
A single action.

Lungs swell up gasping for air
Heart leaps
Into the back of the throat
No air it chokes
That’s fear in #action

Fear of losing a dream
That can’t ever come true
Blossom raining monsoon

I don’t fear spiders or ghouls
I fear losing my dreams of you
