Parties, parties, parties: what part do we wake up to?

Parties , parties, parties:
People like ‘em, some to give ‘em, most to “get“ 'em

Parties, parties:
a few people do
a lot of work

some people love
to come
and be wild

some to come and be quiet

and this can happen:

to come,
feel free,
enjoy others

and still remember
our breathing
and the sensing of our feet as
we touch the ground,
our spines
and arms
as we dance and move

to lose ourselves is
one thing

to stay "with" ourselves
another

both

good
in a way

come on up

our phone message
says,
via my voice
and some radio shack machine:

"Messages for Marlie Wesner
and Chris Elms
....
Come on up
if you'd like to work the soil
or
wake up to now."

since people are
often afraid to work
and even more reluctant to work
in someone else's garden

few come up

and waking up?
is that a big draw?

not really

waking up
to now
is
hey,
something
to do later,
maybe on vacation in Mexico,
or this weekend
or
yeah, yeah, this is cool:
at the next Thing
at Spirit Rock,

and so the message's
tail
progaganda/
invitation/
weeding out
device

isn't listened to

it's just
whizzed by

and some message
is left
or
not

so be it

and
and
and...

and waking up
to now
and the soil

are always
here

always
waiting

in no hurry

(and
sometimes
i am
in a hurry
about this
for me
and
worst of all
for others)

oh, well
i'm a fool
sometimes

la
la

what else
is
new???
