"My cells with giddy recall reel and spin" by Jo Podvin My cells with giddy recall reel and spin Ancestral trick of photosynthesis Dendrites have turned to fuzzy buds within My interstitial spaces sing of this What is not green of shoots is blue of sky The scent of bee seduction fills the air There is no where, no what, no who, no why There is no past, and certainly no care This drunken blossoming expands and grows This blooming fills up all possible space Here there is only yes, no room for nos Intoxicating sweetness, hazy grace Expanding yes, as birdsong from above Love, then, is yes, and yes, oh yes, is love About the Author
I live in Oakland, CA, and am program manager for a small non-profit, Youth Enrichment Strategies (YES), but am currently in the process of planning my escape from the cold summer winds of the San Francisco Bay Area. Part of my motivation for the move is a desire to focus on writing, and I am searching for a publisher for my work, especially my essays/articles. I have lived many places and done many things and am pleased to be involved in the continuing adventure that it is to be alive on this beautiful planet of ours.
