Global Notation

These mutterings, these yarns
the hole in the bagel
is the sum total of obliteration.

all around the walking wounded.

Gutter speak comes easy these days,
It's all moving too fast to be caught
in a thinking web and what begins
to spin has no pattern. The lace-makers
have ceased to exist.

The era of limp hand-shakes
is gaining momentum, seeps through
luke-warm and sweaty, the over spill
of random feeling, random thought.

What passes for affirmative
can be bought. It's bland & blends
into everything., It's on the tip of my tongue
I can't say it, not because I don't want to,
but because there's nothing to say,
nothing at all.

It's Not Love, It's Love, 2000.
Put your Heart to the Wall and Listen,
Casa della poesia , Salerno- Multimedia Edizionis.

MARLENE ARON
(March 31, 1943 - Sept 20, 2018)

March 31, HAPPY Birthday, Marlene Aron, artist, lecturer, activist, poet whose work has been exhibited throughout the United States and in Europe lived and loved in San Francisco. She died Sept.19,2018 after being critically injured in a pedestrian crash (age 75).

"I’m going to make my Art
And that will be my protest."

I'm going to make my Art
and that will be my protest.
I'm going to lift my face to the Sun
and that will be my protest.
I'm going to be thankful I can walk
on sand dunes
and pick up trash
and be grateful for the day
and talk to strangers...
and those will be my protests.
I'm going to make huge and small
and profound works of Art
and paint lots of faces of my brother
because if he were alive
he would also protest.
I'm going to listen to Music that friends make
and laugh and share a drink
or a dessert
and make new friends
and talk to strangers
and smile at babies
and laugh with strangers
and share meals with friends -
and that will be my protest.
I'm going to listen to a cello
and close my eyes
and smile inside...
and that will be my protest.
We won't give up
and that will be our protest.
We'll keep going
and that will be our protest.
We'll laugh and drink
and say hell with you
and write Poetry
and make Art
and make Love
and walk on the beach
and be grateful for the Sun
and bare feet on sand dunes
and that will be my protest.
And that will be our protest.
And that will be our protest.
