Remember Not

Remember Not   ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ I remember when young, one time when I lived in the moment. Though not the moment, the time itself. Nor do I recollect the now when I became self-reflected. Imputing moments with meaning, without presence. Revealing that in […]

Choose

Choose ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ We are but tiny thinking specks, on a tiny living speck, merely insignificant bits of matter. We can choose to be specks living in harmony or war forever, never quit. Choose, the former or latter. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence […]

All So Simple

All So Simple ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ What’s a person to do, when every day there’s something new? War and violence, feeling blue, so what’s a person supposed to do? Rich fools spout madness, though many may agree guns for all; that’s best, don’t you […]

Why on Earth?

Why on Earth? ~~~~~ Who owns the people who are on top and, why on Earth will they not stop?

Outside Straight

Outside Straight ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Who named our potentates in charge to date?

Clocking Out

Clocking Out ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ As the clock for our survival runs, tic, tic, tic, some pick profits over people, sick, sick, sick. If we don’t make changes quick, quick, quick, there’ll be no need for a clock going tic, tic, tic ~~~~~ Peace […]

Always

Always ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Oh so many ways we can dream and hope. Some near, some distant, need a telescope Find what we want or want what we find; spend years so depressed, out of our mind. Will we start to understand which is […]

Damaged Earth, Damaged Sky

Damaged Earth, Damaged Sky ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Why would I want to go that way, knowing where it will likely lead? Like any who find faith at the end, in case they were wrong all along. This conversion on their death bed pure hubris, […]

At Last

At Last ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Come, admit we’ve made our world absurd. We but scurrying ants guarding our anthills, playing make-believe,  kings of our castles, not worthy to be jesters, only play the fools. I’ll happily tell you that I’ve got your nose, nose […]

Happy Trails to You

Happy Trails to You ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ I look around and wonder what each of us sees. Where I sit, it’s cliché, the forest from the trees. I, like, listen to, like, voices impressed by, like; never mind, think I will go out for […]
