Apposite Opposites
~~~~~ What is the apposite of opposite? Which can sit beside it, apropos?

Other Mornings
~~~~~ Misty mornings where I walk Horsetails grow in profusion As to myself, out loud, I talk Seeking escape from confusion Primitive the plants which grow Primitive also this modern man With more misty dawns to know At least that is my current plan ~~~~~ VOTE, November 3, 2020! ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is […]
Someone Like You
Recyclers will come by, Rearrange the atoms, axions, Electrons, gluons, ions To find some re-try-ons. Smile if you want; Won’t change facts none. Happens to exploded suns; Try it, if you have one. Be careful though How you arrange them. Confused, you may cause mayhem, When you hoped for a gem. You’ll wonder how You […]
Some Have, Some Will
~~~~~ Some have called me crazy, so many things worse. Some have called me lazy; work smarter no curse. Some have called me hazy; as I accept the diverse. Some have called me mazy; they’re sure I rehearse. Some have called me liberal; I always seek to give. Some have called me gullible; that’s not […]
So Below
Oh what a trial computers are, yet we cannot live without them. Their bits, bytes, drivers, apps, to most, as magical as a unicorn. Like people, get filled with junk, catch viruses like an alien BEM. We try to tend them carefully, but in time they grow old, forlorn. Like pets, love them, invest in […]

A ‘70s Lament and a Moral
~~~~~ Hearing the music of a long forgotten song, A classic, yet we don’t remember its name. It’s not always even what we would choose. Life is its own agenda, some win, some lose. Reminds us, can’t see what tomorrow brings. How any moment might be paupers or kings. What I would say, choose […]
Balancing Act
~~~~~ Where is the light we keep in the window That guides each of us all the way home? What time we ponder wait and wonder; Will our answers ever remain unknown? How can the illness and greed of the few Control the course all our lives will take? With the time now to think […]
Even When We Don’t
~~~~~ As always, in the middle of the night, Some things will be wrong, some right. It’s not even always what you choose. Life has its own agenda, win or lose. No one knows what tomorrow brings, Our next now, may be paupers, kings. Still, we must always live in this now. Do it, even […]
Dive Into the Sky
~~~~~ Do you buy self-help books by ones, twos Or do you buy them by the bloody dozens? Stop halfway through, dejected, confused, Yet sing their praises, to friends or cousins. Do you read the advice, but don’t follow it And then you wonder why it doesn’t work? You sought tools to scramble from your […]
