Pathways

Jo sells children’s books from
a pergola tied to tent pegs
driven into today’s realities;
connects her beliefs to the books
in an unabashed teaching medium
reaching from the first story ever
told to the first book a child ever
read, revelations unfolding in the
child’s head forging neural
pathways of belief, of grand
vistas in an endless analogy
of truthful make-believe. And Jo
wouldn’t have it any other way.
