What the Future
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Making new connections never known, expected. Found by reaching out. Who knows what the future holds, what any move may change, to what comes after? Every moment passes by. Every glance, nod, head shake, and breath births new chances and possibilities. Unless we stop, flinch, stay in a […]
Write on Yourself
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Warming up without intent, direction, to shake my thoughts and words loose. They tumble out in interesting disarray, while I try to connect them coherently. What sequence will I discover, if any? Limbering my psyche to spill through. My synapses fire, spark what fills me as I write […]
Under the Stars
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Listen to the distant sound of singing. Where you wait, you’re uncertain that such heavenly songs, will ever allow you to discover their source.

Seeking Always to Return
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ Dancing here, watching you dancing there, another step. Similar to mine, sometimes, counterpointed, turned away.

As I Fall Behind
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth! ~~~~~ In the light of the sunset, I saw the eyes of truth. Though they showed the debt I accrued in youth. They left me smiling, just the same. In the glory of the dawn, I heard the voice of all creation, saw the raptor and the fawn. I […]
A Different Day
~~~~~ In this instant generation is it ever just now? If each moment an anticipated future, how? Recording all our lives for future delectation Can existence contain any new expectation? Will it ever be right now, this moment, day? Can we live now while deciding what to say? It is said, our history is written […]
If We Are Lucky, We May Bleed
~~~~~ March is a confused time of both Winter and Spring, at least where I live. All four seasons may show off, anytime or any place we look. Only if we pay attention. How did I arrive here and now? I acted as a child, full of hope imagination. Oblivious to subtleties around me. Always […]
Another’s Dream
~~~~~ Themes of water and waiting Speak to me, beg to come out and play across every page. I must carefully protect them. Stains, tears, random sweat. What grace flows through me? Labors of love spiced by tears When I, another captures ink, flowing into Rorschach blots. They become different words than those I scribble […]
