A Matter of Heart
~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ People are made to be loved and things are made to be used.

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.

War and Music
~~~~~ The held breath Anticipated moment Awaiting Fall of the baton Order to attack The battle begun Enemy engaged Black notes Nebulous faces Hours of practice, drill Engraving response Into your body Your mind, being Carving moments Movements Into your soul Send up a prayer To a higher power Universal spirit Favored deity To watch […]
Nothing Left to Give
~~~~~ Smart phones are a boon and a curse. They unite, simultaneously isolate us. Rooted deep into our days, our purse, in oh so many ways they bankrupt us. Tech rules, talking, staring at a screen, cut off from each as we communicate. To the fly on my leg, it means nothing. In caves, no-touch […]
If
~~~~~ If I could save to world or me, oh, what a crazy choice that would be. I would choose to save the world, you see, but for my love, who matters more than the world or me. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a […]
