People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ What if the stars and galaxies disappeared you awaken unable to speak or understand? Where would you go if able dance through time?

When I Reach Home
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ How might I discover the way back? Do I look for signs, follow the river? I know in time, I will cross the river. Without a boatman or spectral figure. I think I will not be dressed in black it’s the absence of color and vision. I’ve seen […]
Isn’t Up to Me
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ I tell you I have no time for art although, I seem to find a way to pass my studio; I stay away. When I go, I’m overwhelmed. Too much mess to contemplate. So, what exactly is the question? Is it why I don’t make it priority if […]
Sarabande for Missing Magic, Redux
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ Missing magic, miracles all vanished, hidden from everyone. From vast spaces gone. Into unseen minuscule interstices, between atoms disappeared.

The Greatest Teachers
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ Tears are my greatest teachers, especially those I never wept. Those I cried on the inside; they were hidden all but unknown. My pain lived there, and my shattered heart littered the floor. Not one ever noticed them, yet I walked on shards, feet sliced, my spirit shredded […]
Who I am Today?
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ I don’t know what I’ll write. And I don’t know who I’ll be. Will it be right for a bee? Words and sounds so heavy And so playful, depending… Words can play and words can dance. They plan. They sing and argue. At times, they wound. At times, […]
