A poem a day for 2013 - day 74 - Forward

I am spending my life taking pictures of people
At weddings and bars
On stages
At the beach
Zoo
Church
Smiling clapping pointing
All the verbs

Spending all the rest of my days writing/telling stories
About mothers and sons
Daughters sisters families
Men women trees aliens bees
All the nouns

Standing on soap box on some corner
Of my blog
My block
My building
My mind
Wherever

Every breath I have left for justice
For love
For screaming out our babies names
For the abused
The heroes
Artists
Thinkers
Healers
All the Superfriends

These big ears
For dirt
Dogs
Ants
Plants
Sky
Leaves
Ocean
Ancestors
Angels

Long brown arms wrap so easy
'Round moon
Son
Feet
Words
Memories
Me
