Managers of the moment 4/24/15

We are all managers of each momentary setting

as if presumed to be storefront depiction specialists

with director’s results already in the can of our minds

and a projectionist’s confidence for audience’s views.

All natural accounts readied beyond the rehearsals,

each moment, new stage, newly peopled as watchers.

The reality interview ad nauseam going forward.

Each, a celebrity of self-awareness, in access and excess.

Self-consciousness demanding performance results.

Mindfulness, a preoccupation towards presentation skills 

helped by a streetwise sense of cognizance.

Everyone is looking for the innocent heart of a flower

in spite of the centerpiece table setting’s first view.

Everyone is wanting the inviting electric environment

of chaos’s authenticity presence but without the necessity 

of the guardedness generally required as our screening process, 

sort of topsy turvy in a ground/figure way. 

It was never the ring, the setting, or the occasion

but always the facets, light reflected inviting. 

So much hustle and bustle surrounding the secret of silence 

in the stillness of each of us. 

Permission to come from within however evoked, 

managers not withstanding . . .
