Only Happenstance
Only Happenstance ~~~~~ Can you or I hear the beating heart at the center of all existence? Here, there and everywhere, end to start. Measuring the length of time, Echoing the sound of our persistence. No longer can I call to find the time. You laugh; I must be old enough to bury. Despite our […]

Bet it Ain’t So
Bet it Ain’t So ~~~~~ Please, breathe deeply and let it all go. Why worry about how little you know? Sit back and relax and go with the flow, Like you are buried neck-deep in snow.
