A potential place for change.
Hey world changer looks like by finding this missing page, you’re already discovering new paths for our team to develop and grow. If you’re trying to reach us, get in touch here or to more about our offerings head here.
Since you’re here and we’re getting to know each other, I will share with you that in addition to being an executive coach I’m a poet and a musician. So to make this detour worthwhile, I offer you this poem I wrote visiting Mexico that was published by Common Ground in 2016. Enjoy, Dave
THE SOUND OF A FOUNTAIN IN MEXICO CITY
Pigeons flap
through the chemical haze struggling
for elevation
a girl’s shriek, horn blast or
Bedlam at the Gate of Lions
sparked the exodus
Chapultepec.
Concrete ensconces the soft
ground like a corset
the alien form of the mushroom fountain
drips and seethes
I sit at the transom
cleaved open by the sound of running water
Tizoc’s legions once streamed
across this red earth
soft padding of a thousand feet
insects buzzing like wood saws in the
green gold air
I sit in a hanging chair
drinking coffee as ever
air plants cling to branches
“And all times are one time”
the old pulse still quickens
blood still iron and salt
