LUCK BEING GOOD MUCH LIKE NUTRITION
Luck’s in this time
and always available to us
Like a surfer, we can surf
Or not even
have to do that
‘cuz surfing implies
skillfulness
And we certainly don’t want
to limit luck to the skillful
So like a walker, we can walk,
we can walk right through
whatever door gets us there
to luck, luck being good,
of course, much like
nutrition
Doesn’t even have to be a door
we can walk through, it can be
an archway o’ air
It can be an archway o’ air
just sitting right here
Or if we’re a fish, it can be
an archway o’ water
Or if we’re a tunneling animal
or insect, it can be an archway o’ dirt,
the dirt in which we live,
the tunnel that is
our abode
So when we’re sitting here
our luck sits here, too
And part of it is out there
collecting goodness for us
with its arms
out there
And sitting
here
with us, too
Even just
enjoying
breathing
Being cultivated
And when we’re moving about,
our luck moves about with us and
We can take some of our ever-growing
luck–our ever-growing good luck–
and put gobs of it on places
and people so it
sticks to them,
takes care of them,
goo of goodness
