Light and Shadow, a Duet
Moon, a perfect pearl,
Night sky's gentle, glowing lantern,
Soft light on the land.
Moon, a malformed rock,
Night sky's burning, ancient lantern,
I will eat tonight.

I need exercise. But, my schedule is irregular.
Trying to make a round of the apartment floor each time I drink water. 5mn 250 steps...10 times in a day...2500 steps. But, I need about three to five times that number. I'll schedule time on the bike or treadmill.

Fearless, I walk the darkest paths
Wearing pain and sorrows name
For piercing those black and stygian ways
Blazes a gold and violet flame

Real haiku is the soul of poetry. Anything that is not actually present in one's heart is not haiku. The moon glows, flowers bloom, insects cry, water flows. There is no place we cannot find flowers or think of the moon. This is the essence of haiku...

DeSantis continues to use emergency orders to steer millions of taxpayer dollars to politically connected contractors without a competitive bidding process. Just one company (Critical Response Strategies) involved in the Everglades detention camp got a $78 million contract!

Florida’s disaster pipeline funnels millions to politically connected contractors
The state’s emergency rules allow Gov. Ron DeSantis to suspend state laws and a competitive bidding process to award millions of dollars from an account he alone controls.
