I chased a bellflower's dance and turned its sway into a ribbon of lemon and moss.

Calibration, or: A rengay

A two-person ‘Rengay’

By Leon and David

lw-flowers underfoot
black earth rendered our perfume
the tear on your cheek
db-       supermarket aisle lights buzz
      I choose fruit without thinking
lw-days forage for me
a fly settles on my palm
flinches at Spring rain
db-traffic lights cycle
no one waits for anyone
green means drift forward
lw-       inhaling on the mountain
      I return home with a breath
db-she kneels among rows
soil packed beneath her nails
eyes lowered, intent

Rengay?

Rengay is a form of linked verse created as an alternative to Japanese renga or renku. The form was devised by Garry Gay in California in 1992. A rengay consists of six thematic haiku verses and is normally composed by two or three poets, although solo and six-person rengay are not uncommon.

This form actually requires a bit of explanation, so I recommend that you read about it HERE.

Let’s write poetry together!

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.

Ben Harper (b. 1969)

Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!

Never wait.

Don't hold back.

Get going - right now.

Because the world as you know it at this very moment won't exist beyond the next moment. And by the time you get going, the opportunity it might present will be long gone.

And yet, you are probably like most people - you're going to wait. For the 'perfect moment' when 'the time is right.' And with that, you fall behind.
Look, throughout my 36-year voyage, I’ve seen the same pattern repeat in every industry: leaders waiting for the "perfect moment," the "final report," or the "economic recovery" to begin their next move. They treat readiness as a destination they need to reach before they can start. People do the same thing - if we have a major career opportunity, a freelance idea to chase, or a new skill we need to adapt.

We wait until we are ready.

But here is the brutal reality of the Infinite Pivot: The future doesn't care about your hesitation.

In my book, Dancing in the Rain, I explored why you have to build while it’s pouring rain. Why did I write it? Because I know most people view a period of volatility or a period of chaos as a reason to delay. They think they are being "prudent" by waiting. In reality, they are being overtaken.

Here's what I know: you need to establish a dual mindset, in which you:

Rebuild during the lows: The rainy periods, aka volatility, are the only time you have the quiet to master the next tool, learn new skills, or overhaul your infrastructure. If you are waiting for things to "get back to normal" to start your growth phase, you have already lost opportunities due to the speed of change

Pivot during the highs: When things are going well, that is exactly when the next disruption is cutting to the front of the line. It won't wait for you. You need to jump.

The Infinite Pivot is about realizing that the idea of being "ready" is a myth, a trap, a barrier. The future tends to arrive on its own schedule. If you spend your time waiting for clarity, you’ll find yourself standing in a world that has already moved on without you.

You can't control the timing, but you can control your motion.

Don't wait for the future to invite you.

Jim Carroll's book of 2007, Ready, Set, Done: How to Innovate When Faster is the New Fast, emphasized the need to be ready.

Doing The Do (2).

Once again, same shot as yesterday, but with some coloring (split tones) and other stuff done to it. I think I prefer the original 🤷🏻‍♂️

Doing The Do.

Hope you don't mind the body size 😬
A shot I've made several days ago of me on the treadmill, but didn't get into the "mood" to process it till this morning. The processing was quite simple really, nothing fancy. Maybe I'll try to "add a touch" to it later on; if I feel like it that is.
The exposure here was for 32 minutes. Probably I should've raised the camera level a bit higher to be in level with my shoulders. Anyway, it was something to break the monotony and the block I'm going through at the moment, since I didn't do much with my camera for days now (actually, weeks). With summer coming in, and the security issues are the moment, it's hard to walk outside with a camera to try and find some abstracts. I need to think inward.
