I wish I could chat up women
silently
wordlessly
telepathically
without long
courtship rituals
the neither of us really believe in
but, not worried about what comes after,
just nod to each other
and poof! find ourselves
waking up in a bedroom
entwined

The Jewish year 5786 runs from sunset on September 22, 2025, to sunset on September 11, 2026. In Jewish tradition, it is considered a year of divine connection, symbolized by the Hebrew letter vav (ו), representing a hook, bridge, or connection between heaven and earth, often referred to as a year to "stretch to connect" or build unity.Key Significance of 5786:Hebrew Letter Vav (ו): The year is associated with the 6th letter, vav, which acts as a connector and represents humanity (created on the 6th day).Theme of Connection: It is viewed as a time for divine alignment, bringing together disjointed seasons, and connecting the spiritual and physical realms - and hopefully in my case, the inner and the outer.
I watch the mind, its machinations, its impossible hunger for safety and comfort, its fears and desires. That is what mind does.

My young adult son
keeps his distance
but feeds me the occasional
morsel
major victories and defeats
but nothing in between
like a dog gone for weeks
that only comes indoors
to bring a magnificent rat
to place at my feet
or, cowed, tail folded
rests a while between them.
and when he does
despite the bitter thoughts
that seemed to calcify
in the long bleak silences
amazingly
the best father I know how
appears with
open arms
and heart
