My shape-shifting friend
My shape-shifting friend
Always new
Moment to moment!
:- Doug.

Warmth from the fireplace
memory of a smile
smoke drifting from a chimney
sidereal night sky
G must be like these
:- Doug.
Rate of change
in direction
depends upon
—sharpness of the angle of change
—turning radius of the vehicle
So if you seek
to change your society
consider
—how much change you are asking
—how much people desire this change
:- Doug.
Consider the words
we would not apply
to ourselves, our society
but first
consider the words
we do:
faster
higher
stronger
wiser
better
winner
number one
aggressive
warrior
Now consider
the others:
slower
deeper
gentler
learning
equal
mate
companion
receptive
peacemaker
beauty
feminine
soft
pliable
vulnerable
flowing
intimate
fun
playing
Consider
contraries give
essence
to one another
each we need
Consider
:- Doug.
