Now or in the Future
~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Filled with chances, wasted hours, happy times the path ahead carries us onward, up a distant hill. What stops will we make, steps will we take, missed friends, opportunities, through fear, reason, self-treason? Challenges we’ll add to our path’s trials as […]
Here, Then Gone
~~~~~ Do we believe that the world will remain, that it and we will always stay the same? Our thoughts and actions we must retain, no different than all who play the game? Most agree our world is a different place. Fire, water, ice, wind, life here, then gone. No exception; we all run in […]
Time and Tyrants
~~~~~ Then, how do we judge things we create reflecting the world and the self we present. Utilitarian, glorious, elegant, ugly, personal, public, whatever field. Music which may soar as skyscrapers, cathedrals. Art, as massive dam or a mighty cataract that surmounts it, shatters it, altering our landscape, a flowing river, stopped by a new […]
Talking to Others, Talking to Myself
~~~~~ Who do you like to talk most? What do you like to talk about? Do you listen or brag and boast? Are you confident, full of doubt? Do you prove the gracious host, hassle your guest, yell and shout? Do you try, or only merely coast, dominate and make others pout? Chatter, jabber talk […]

Happy Trails to You
~~~~~ I look around and wonder what each of us sees. Where I sit, it’s cliché, the forest from the trees I listen to voices, talk spiced with the word like; never mind, I think I will go out for a long hike. We mistake politicians for leaders, know they lie. Kill or discredit true […]
Remains of the Daze
~~~~~ I watch all the faces when I walk. I read their heartache, joy and pain. I imagine their stories, as if we talk. Despite tales I create, theirs remain. O so many stories and, also, so few. I think I read this number is seven. Basics match if not life, who knew? Bad, good, […]
Whose Sweet Face?
~~~~~ While club and maul and stick and mace may have been effective to smash a face, they all require study, practice and intent, maim or murder always what was meant. While the spear and stone or an arbalest, increased striking distance, were not fast. Designed to kill prey, as dangerous as us finished more […]
