Talk is cheap
conversation dear

:- Doug.

The ones inside
the open circle
can do more
than those we
fear outside

:- Doug.

Choose well your song
We become what we sing

:- Doug.

What question asks you?
One not possible to answer

:- Doug.

What set out to do?
A task not possible:
The only into worth throwing your life

:- Doug.

At this time in history
gather

:- Doug.

By chance
we run the threads
creating community
now for larger
run a few by choice

:- Doug.

Awareness is a wider
circle

:- Doug.

A larger circle
Where more is possible—
Open Space

:- Doug.

Not here to create life
Arrived an hour before us
Merely poke it in the ribs

:- Doug.

This could be your time
keep your eyes open
to all who are with you
work in sacred celebration
you have this hour
speak your truth

;- Doug.

Turning people
to face
their part in
larger circles
grows me

:- Doug.

Conversing through us
Coursing through our lives
The world rolls
Buck deer leaps through
Green leaves are shaken

:- Doug.

Be about conversing, about making the world as we walk it.

:- Doug.

Footprints in the Wind^sm # 1436

Art performs the service
of morphing the superfluous
into the necessary
do not care how many generations it takes
some news won’t come till the old ones die out

Please pass it on.

Allee, allee, all in free!
Applies equally
To adults—you and me!

:- Doug.

Use it all!
Use us all
Use all our energy
Cut not off the engine
While there is fuel in the tank
Throw yourself all in
Invite everyone into the pool

:- Doug.

Soft and gentle as a thunderstorm
Bright and clear as moonless night
Elusive as a soaking rain

:- Doug.

All this
plus
all that

:- Doug.

See bigger
Say bigger
Invitingly

:- Doug.

Leap into the divine abyss
such is the flight of life
never will you get out alive

:- Doug.

Look for your opening—
make one—
now speak

:- Doug.

Command—in whispers—
or invite
—same effect—
the great things you see require
—your voice

:- Doug.
