Slow Down! This isn't the 'mainland.'
Let's walk in Ala Moana Park
before her parking lots are closed
and become staging areas
for APEC security. . .
Nature is so nurturing, welcoming . . .
SAY! is that tree SNEERING at us?
He's a mean drunk!
" Bacchus, n.: A convenient (nature) deity
invented by the ancients
as an excuse for getting drunk. "
Ambrose Bierce
" Bacchus hath drowned more men
than Neptune (god of the seas)."
Thomas Fuller
And speaking of seas,
Ala Moana is a beach park.

| Outrigger Canoes at Rest |
Pupukahi i holomua
" Unite to move forward."
Each Hawaiian in the canoe
has to pull together on the call
for the canoe to move forward,
quickly forward.
Each canoe has a soul that is awakened
and reawakened
with blessings.
Anyone who talks to their vehicle
should understand this!
They all have given names as well
I ka 'olelo no ke ola, i ka 'olelo no ka make.
" In speech is life, in speech is death."
" Imua means “go forward” in Hawaiian.
Most often said with an exclamation point:
Red Rovers
These are not Hawaiian Outrigger Canoes. What?
Ah! Here he is with his head ON. (At Splendor of China)
" As soon as you trust yourself,
you will know how to live. "
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe,
Faust

Isn't it wonderful
just to walk
aimlessly
in the park
together
like this?
