The Crying of Hat 10 1/2
~~~~~ Events in life happen when they must; A meaningless assertion at its very best. Events in life do happen when they do, So, they must happen when they must. This tautological sophistry oft repeated Is proclaimed to proclaim proclamation. Proving nothing can only prove nothing. There is nowhere to go from this point. Therefore, […]
Just Walk Away, Rene
~~~~~ When will a pipe, still, no longer be a pipe? When will a blue bird in flight be a croissant? What if we can never know which is each type? What if we, our names, don’t stay au courant? This might be a bad thing, or it might be good. Thought about it, a […]
Prufrock’s Lament
With the current news in the world, both economic and political, the aggression, bigotry, misogyny and xenophobia, it seemed time to revisit Prufrock, with thanks to T.S. Eliot for his original brilliance. War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength; Trumpery is Reality ~~~~~ Let us slow then, you and I. When vile emissions […]
What is the Question?
We all think that we mean a lot History tells us the answer is not All of the names cited in books Future will give no second looks Burnt to cinders, Sol’s nova flash Nothing left to throw in the trash
Wag Chins, Flap Gums
~~~~~ Well, they all do make really valid points, Though their topic of discussion is unclear. If we all sit down and smoke several joints; We will then believe we’ve nothing to fear. How do we deal with overdose information, Religion, drugs, sex, TV, or move a mouse? Whatever, we succumb, labor or recreation. King, […]
Sarabande for Missing Magic
~~~~~ Missing magic, miracles, All vanished, Nowhere to be found. From vast spaces, Gone. Into unseen Miniscule interstices Between atoms, Disappeared. Despite clues, Maps and legends, Whispered rumors; Whereabouts remained Unknown. Quests were mounted. Heroes came forth. Solo adventurers, Fellowships, too, Robber’s trusts; All trekked far, Endured miles Uncounted. Mighty mountains Scaled, Storm-wracked seas Sailed, […]
Simple Man
~~~~~ I am a simple man. Because I believe the human race can change, I am a dreamer. Because I believe everyone should understand, I am naïve. Because I believe if enough people say no, it will matter, I am a fool. Because I say this to other people, I am a simpleton. Because I […]
Musings on a String Octet
~~~~~ The bows glide up and down, back and forth, Rapidly, but oh how sing the lyrical strings. Soft, slow, fostering feelings of great worth; Played by masters, the rapture music brings. ~~~~~ See more of my creative offerings and opinions at: Brent Harris Fine Art Philip Brent Digital Art Vida Voices Scriggler TPM The Extra […]
Carpe Hora
~~~~~ They know they are outnumbered ninety-nine to one We, the larger number, say that nothing can be done Is it something in the water, or maybe it’s in our food Whatever it proves to be, it must be something good Good, for them, at least, but not for all the rest of us And, […]
Do You?
~~~~~ Do you know who you are, Every day from day to day? Do you wake one day as one Person and one day as another? Each might be a different version Of you, but do you always notice? You’re happy or, perhaps, depressed? Do you think, assume it’s you, same as Always, but are […]
