I'd been locked out from posting here for about three months. Got it squared away now.

I am soooo behind on poetry posts here!

Geeks' Fire...

Geeks' Fire...

By the soft glow of a dehumidifying HVAC unit,

I warm myself in the hot breeze of router cooling fans,

As slowly the night-shift clock does creep.

All through the Site not an alarm stirring,

Neither transducer's screams,

Nor LED gleams,

No printer going nuts.

All night I pray to keep it that way,

Holding fast to my inner Zen,

O if the tidings are right,

Of a silent night,

I'll make it home on time to bed.

Energy...

Energy...

Somehow some way gonna push a little love around,
Like donating chi in Chinatown,
Nothing too much for a greasy spoon,
Or a footstep on the Moon,
One small step Mankind,
But that's how we can truly fly,
In the split between heart beat and sigh,
No more need to wonder why,
It's all about silken dreams,
So it seems,
But I know there's more to life than that,
Tucked up somewhere under my hat,
Just a few night-jeweled words are all it takes,
But they can't be fakes,
Let the waters pour forth and rush around,
All over you,
All over town,
Around the Earth abound,
For Heaven's sake don't be late,
Out the starting gate,
It's your fate,
A little love lot of energy,
Silly me,
But I try,
No wonder why,
Never lie,
Not on this,
Never crush one another's bliss,
If it comes to this,
Then simply speak,
Words of gold is what we seek,
One and all,
Before we fall,
Hear the call,
So tell me true,
What is blue,
Just lack of the spark,
A place out in the dark,
Wouldn't be,
Just for want of a little free energy,
Will you be,
Kind to you and kind to me,
So you see,
It's all a tree,
Branches high and roots below,
We all know,
Love makes it grow,
Even after snow.

Happy, grateful, loving Thanksgiving to you All.

Sunny, 70, cloudless, light breeze

So I'm savoring a besautiful double-ligero La Flor Dominica cigar & coffee. 56 ring guage, 7-inch.

The breeze keeps trying to make it burn longer on one side, but I have a secret weapon: a large magnifying glass!

I have a 4-inch glass to trim it with, as long as I have sun.

(Cigars REALLY need to burn evenly.)

Mmmm.
