To the Future

Everywhere I go and look, I see lip-service to the future. Thinking we’ve had what it took; For such ignorance, there’s no cure. There’s no future, only now. Although this now what informs us. Now eternally changing; you know how. And if you don’t, just don’t get hit by a bus. ~~~~ Peace is Purpose, […]

Can I?

When I was young, I was wise; It’s all leaked out of my head. School poked the hole, I surmise. Can I put it back in, ere I’m dead? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ See more of my creative offerings and opinions Brent Harris Fine Art […]

Give it a Go

Starting late and you’ll be late. Starting on time, no guarantee. You have chosen to participate; Relax.

Be a Child

Oh, to be a child again, Not knowing very much. Using magic, no word or pen; Most adults can no longer touch Poets, dreamers, no citation, The mad and sacred artists know; Close their eyes and touch creation. Childlike, they are able to alter the flow.

Begin Again

I have seen the future and I have even lived within it. Difficult, you understand, It’s now when you begin it.

Could Be

Wishing can work just like magic, Depending on your focus and intent. Careful, it could end up being tragic, Wonder how you got where you went.   I’d love to hear what you think. I get very few replies, but I’ve never understood why.

Beggar or Bard?

It cannot make any real difference Which way you might go, if you go Forward and don’t sit on the fence. On a fence, watch life, never know What might have been, no suspense. Sitting thus you’ll never ever move In any particular direction toward Any disaster or triumph to behoove Choice: boss, worker, beggar, […]

Otherwise, Begin Again

You may feel that politics must consume us and, I admit, everything seems scarier now. We should stay worried at what divides us, money, bigotry are pushed so we daily row. Otherwise, you may as well become a lush. If we don’t rethink our world bottom to top, we might as well blot out the […]

All but Anger

I’m a better person because I learned again to feel, by uncorking the bottle where all but anger lived. poured myself a glass and drank it; I had to kneel Poured onto the sands my emotions, truth sieved New sea of my feelings; waves roll up and down, some move gently and some rage as […]

A Simple Smile

We get confused by other languages and the place we’re from, doesn’t understand. We smile,  frown in exactly the same way. Smile at someone now, improve your day. Not always, but often, they’ll smile back. If not, don’t be alarmed, go on the attack. Don’t know what their life is, was before, that simple smile […]
