20.8.23


he walked into the kitchen for another cup of coffee

on the floor a fly turned toward him
kowtowed

   It just kowtow to you
It did

   Whacha going to do
                         as heshe shehe asked he kowtowed
You kiddin me . .
. . Look
          Like I was kiddin

No
     Grimly serious


he bent overplaced his hand on the linoleum before the fly

it clambered into his palm
Hold tight little guy
                     he walked over to the kitchen window sprung the latch opened it they were under Hilary Watch a tropical storm waltzing up Baja first since 1939 the weather was odd  demur
                                                                                  he sensed it recognized the fly sensed it
it buzzed off his hand anwas gone


I woudnt believed it if I hadnt seen it with my own eyes

Petite miracle
                I believe they present all the time  But     

I think theres something more to your happens all the time

Not really
           Someone is either mindful or theyre not I believe Ive witnessed more than my share of remarkable happenstances The fly Possibly miraculous

I keep emhold em tight  I am grateful

You don speak of them

No 
     I actually wait for others to say

An do they

Its terribly rare  But its not no

   Id scream it from the rooftops

You might scream yourself hoarse 
                                      Be grateful for whaya have These arent great mysteries   Theyre gifts
