Bernie and Buber
Bernie calls it play, I call it converse, Buber calls it meeting. All real life is….

The games are to get us outside ourselves, toward intimacy, toward inter-living, toward advancing life’s agenda. They are largering.

Elder dancing
This eldering is a larger undertaking: major poetry as it were. This is acting upon the elders to find ever larger developments. The developments I have seen are merely hints of what is possible. Where is life taking us, where can we dance with life and maybe lead (love!) it a bit?

to embrace and to round
Not balancing, not blending,
our magnificent individuality
with our relating capacity
bringing them both
to embrace and to round

Growing colors!
Elders participate in metamorphosis
losing creeping bodies, growing colors!

Eldering going around
Perhaps elders are not eldering us, rather pointing out the larger and hidden eldering that is going around and available to us.

We promise lostness
We promise tension, anxiety, and lostness. Not namby-pamby sweetness. Return untouched? Unlikely.

A few letters only separate division from diverse. They spell how we stand: for disarray or growth.
