when the repetitive
is not boring
 
and the familiar
is new
 
when the same coffee
brings new warmth
everyday
 
and your heart
feels the plight
of others
rather then
privileged guilt
 
and your cold
rational eye
with no God to save you
 
sees the world for what it is
choosing no favourites
tragedy is for anyone
 
then you are being
being-in-the-world

    I started my "Poem-A-Day" writing exercise back in 2010. It was a way to get into the habit of writing everyday.  It took awhile but once I got into it I really enjoyed the process.  I took a break in 2023 to work on getting "Carbon Copy" into the wild. I also wanted to re-read my poem-a-day scribblings to see if there were any unpolished gems amongst the rubble.  My plan is to post one per week in my Blog.  Find "Carbon Copy" at:
