Bully’s Lament
People Over Politics, Country Over Capitulation, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ This is an older piece but seemed somehow appropriate. Generosity of spirit flies, fills the world.

Night Watch
People Over Politics, Country Over Capitulation, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ Written 11/3/2020 late afternoon Hear our voices embrace all with our hope and love, After Terra firma long vanished, no horizon in sight, Rich with a cautious joy and in a rising expectation.

Sweep Away Darkness

They Have Survived
People Over Politics, Country Over Capitulation, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ Lotus grows from dirty, muddy water, So beauty arises from something unclean. It self-propagates along the eight-fold path.
