Guidelines

Gently gaze at the image, noting what immediately speaks to you.

Then take a little longer, exploring, resting in it, don’t overthink, just reside in it.

Finally consider how the image speaks to you, to your life and what is being communicated.

With no patience, a tirade continues,

Gulfs of frustration and vicissitude flow from a small mouth,

Not designed to be this way in the world.

So, we listen and discern the needed action,

Carefully kayaking through the rapids which are visible to her,

But not to me.

When sailing seems like a better option.
