Scatters

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ The water sound, as you turn on the backyard hose, when you fill the bird bath with fresh water. Soft patter of the seed you scatter for birds, small critters to come feed at your larder. Mostly wrens, house finches and other l.b.b.’s, little brown birds, as […]

Knuckles on Skull

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ Fingers dance, eyes dance, strings dance, swing stance. Banging on the block like a hollow head. The coconut in a cartoon.

Contained in Nothingness

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~   I float in the ethereal, surrounded by the known unknowing, the presence, absence, death of life, so life may live. Never one unless the other shares the spot. All of these things, ideas, concepts happening. Contained in nothingness. ~~~~~ Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment Peace […]

Neither Particle Nor Wave

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ The luscious longitude of creation,languid latitude of space and time.Embodied in a being so giganticwe barely imagine we’re but part.Infinitesimal, until we grow vast Think a body made in the image of  a cosmos, embodying everything, nothing. Long before time began. If it indeed ever did so. […]

If It’s Human

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~   ~~~~~ The doves circled in the dawn. Settled into trees, talking softly among themselves in whispers. So they will attract no attention. Neither from the mighty nor the small life which scurries below. Something dark and dangerous stalks through the center of the forest. Quiet settles. With […]

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ Stroll languidly through Redwood trees. The soft, sweet whistle of a passing train carries your mind to a distant destination. A time long past or yet to come. Stretching you to grow into your full being. Stop in a clearing where sunlight filters to the ground. Brown […]
