VIRTUAL vs REALITY

"You can spend your whole day online
and never meet a real person"(South Congress Post Office customer
She rescues birds-had chosen a card to send
to Colorado to her friend who rescues cats
"We are destroying bird habitat-best we can do is welcome them
into our homes.They live up to 80 years-my Macaw is 26-
when i shared i was going to walmart to buy her parrot seed
she translated this to mean"so i am alone again!"
Birds talk-they tell you what they mean
We need to listen!.."She was next in line
moved to the counter with a "HAPPY THANKSGIVING!"
We all need rescue in these dark and difficult days-
cats,birds,lovers,friends,poets,musicians,artists-
this is why we gather nightly to affirm the reality of fantasies
in November 2010.Dream this in to your day.It happened
Somewhere,two smiles are rescuing birds and cats
The rest of us will have to start rescuing -or to wait...
