June Hovering Carpet 2020

During this “simultumultuous” time
of containment and explosion,
The Flying Carpet
is still hovering
and gathering together various collections
from over the years.

Here are a few:
The Bark Collection
(taken out of context
becoming something beyond)
 

The Collection of Edges
(saving and giving a home
to all the bits and pieces)
 

The Needle Book Collection
(the bizarre ideal woman)
 

The  Collection of Strange Envelopes
(became part of a year journal
from 2010 called Post Thanks)
 

The Collection of Miscellany
(Or the collection of things
everyone else throws away)
 

My friend Jean says,
“a collection is
when you have one
and you want more.”
 

I notice that
addition
and
addiction
have only one letter
separating them.
 

What surprising collection
do you have?
 

From my isolation
giving thanks to each person
who is making
their courageous voice heard
for positive change.
