Hi Sheila,
This made me laugh, when I needed it. Thank you.

I acknowledge the Kaurna people, traditional custodians and songmakers
of the land on which I live. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Subject:Fungible
When Marla first heard
the word "fungible,"
she found a way
to insert it into
every conversation
to the bewilderment
of colleagues, neighbors,
and fellow board members,
until everyone was ready
to exchange their positions
their feelings
their life savings
for a moment of sheer peace
not redeemable
for anything else.
Sheila E. Murphy
