"don't tell her to sit down!
she's fighting for her life!"

we gather round
embrace healthy cells
encourage her body to boost strength
with knowledge of which cells are which
fortify the good, crumble the bad
pinpoint the bright
activate the light
eradicate the invader
home zone comfort once more

dear poets

would you consider
offering up
a gift of a few
of your words
for Claudia?

Claudia who is
my brother's lover,
my brother's best friend,
my brother's wife

Words
that he can read to her
Words
that will encourage her
Words
of poets

Would be
forever
grateful!

Asking out of love
for my brother,
for she who is like my sister,
and for their children who are like mine

(still)
a few hours later
same day

showers for claudia
heart felt embraces for claudia
hands held over space
a net of survival
a reservoir of energy
a bountiful bundle of earth-born beauty
all for claudia
in her fertility
in her generousity
no need to invite unwanted guests
only the family
plugs into the love zone
sweet sound of strength

please pass on to your brother, to claudia, to the fetus and one more time

om shanti om

Only the family
thinking about my sister and brother in law
I think/pray for your brother to have the strength
to be there for her


every time I think about you and your family I wish I was a poet
even so I send the best energy I can
when ever I do think of this thread

we have endured this road
to no end
our feet keep moving
traveling
searching
living
there is no choice
for life is the
noble truth
me I feel like I'm becoming some kinda Kung fu t.v. Priest.....

Thank you truckin'still! and man'wired!

Received a call
in the night
two ago.

Ran to be
by their side,
my man
at mine.

Wrapped
arms
around
little
boys,
nephews
two
and
five.

They don't understand.
Neither do we.

Two days past,
she's stable
now.

Praying,
praying,
praying --
positivity.

day 12
going to stop counting now,
not sure why I was.

we count to steady our pulse
a comforting metronome
-we're alive and well
