Scattered
~~~~~ Scattered thoughts drop, skittering ‘round my fevered brain, Uncertain, eager, undecided, driven, unknown, alone. So many paths, all taken more than once, divided and diverted. I seem only able understand that which I do not understand. Scattered nature, random, happenstance, unrealized patterns; Rain falling, misting, sprinkling, driving, no cause but gravity, Engenders life in […]

The Same Advice
~~~~~ The time is now, or so they say, It’s time for us to seize the day. Carpe diem is urged on humans. What happened to the Romans? Outcome ended less than nice, When they took the same advice. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave […]
You’re Not
~~~~~ No longer will we require any high-school senior To recognize the words sagacious or prevaricator. I do not think that’s wise, to say I do, I’d be a liar, As the dumber we become, the lower we’ll aspire. The only smart things we’ll own are phones, cars And really, both are more intelligent than […]

That’s What I Think
~~~~~ God’s feet I imagine Would not fit In my backyard Nor in the town Where I live Being so large God must be clumsy Or, perhaps, allergic To us, to people Do god’s sneezes Bring storms Mayhap god trips Steps into the ocean Causing rough seas Floods and tsunamis Eating suns, novae Hot breath […]
Grow Silent, Listen, Hear
~~~~~ From the Minor musings of Phileas the Lesser I wonder if I shall ever find Wonder, magic, all together? Not bits and bobs, flotsam Scattered through my life, Apprehended by my perception. Expressed through my creativity. In our world, our universe, Put together just so, Where life rises and life falls, Each in proper […]
Come Away
~~~~~ To the storytellers Sky writers Mud pie makers Sand diggers Castle builders World painters Moviemakers Deep sea divers Wise women Learned men Lore keepers Truth seekers Winsome weepers Promise breakers Liars, libertines Singing suns Dancing atoms Once and future Past and gone Now Plaintive notes Fraught phrases Bird song Feet set tapping Mind set […]
