Crosstown panic as
Human traffic blocked exits,

So what's up? were we bamboozled / hoodwinked by an elegant deception?
Signals hidden reveal an unwanted / unwelcome reception.
Distracted! listening to Crosstown Traffic by Jimi Hendrix!
A wasted drive? needing to pump brakes like Bendix!
I do not know
why my nation
elected a mental geranium
to run the show
Now for our ignorant sin
we are in the throes
of perpetual woe
Insofar as I know
this may be as low
as we have ever been
in US history
When will this self inflicted
misery end?
You know it is truly summer in coastal Maine when pots of red geraniums rest on every porch.

i'm not a punching bag
tolerating brute force
just a wakeup reminder
i've no reason to settle scores
set my boundaries
built up #relatable walls
surviving years of rude behavior
gave me room to pause
now i'm chill in my own skin
no need to bare my claws
My aunts called it Decoration Day long after its name had been changed to Memorial Day. That made more sense to six year old me since I knew nothing then of the Civil War or any war or death for that matter Geraniums on the grave did indeed seem to be a decoration after all.

Always worrying
Over her geraniums,
My grandmother's quirks.

my wish of being a #geranium
sunning on windows ledge
watered on a weekly basis
life can carry on at best
300 species in my family
i was chosen to be pink
so when daylight dissipates
i'm guaranteed my beauty sleep
so #relatable
like a swift breeze showing up
on scorching Summer days
like comforting sand under ones feet
sanctioned by oceans caressing waves
a smile that never grows old
When I hear the news, I feel like a bobble head. Nothing is relatable, reliable or believable. #BraveWrite #writingprompts

She had that relatable mix of bravado and weariness you see in people who’ve been fighting the same quiet battle for years, the kind no one else notices until it’s already won or lost.

More relatable
Than ever before, protest
Songs from days of yore.
