Current life situation (retired working, volunteering, etc.):

Retired after 25 years working as a main-frame computer operator, before that, in libraries and grocery stores. As black-turtle-necked-white-shirted-bereted-bicycle-riding eccentric as ever, I'm a published poet, translator (Spanish and French), learning Body, Mind and Heart hands-on healing (includes bone and muscle work, Reike, cranial-sacral [invented at Michigan State], vibrational acupuncture, crystal work, among other "ways in") and spend the rest of my virtual 72-hour days doing international solidarity, mostly with Latin America and the First Peoples. Here's a poem, and a photo from last summer - Rocket science or after putting together the barbecue with friends:

Quiver I am not a single arrow desiring its target but a whole quiver loosed, my fletchings torqueing against the wind, unwilling to settle for a single trajectory, wakes of twisting feathers non-concentric circles drawn by a single bow,      converging      to lodge in       the black       imperial        heart.
