No Longer Ours
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ The end of an era, so-called. Not the end of all, perhaps. Unknown for now, until some future now, connected; contiguous, not, in theory, continuous. Then, is that us, gone? Merely an era in time, between, no relationship but time, flowing, A rolling stream, raging river, fed by […]
It Is
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ To sit apart, watch and listen almost equals the miraculous magic, magical miracles in which I believe, Though I’ve seen neither magic nor miracles, I’ll live within them every single day. I awaken in bright morning knowing who and where I am, though usually I don’t know what […]
They Wear the Truth
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Hurry, hurry! Run along. You will not be quick enough. Though ultimately, you may be the latter.

Fallen Silent
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Tell me, please, why are the bells ringing? Is it a time of joy that sets people singing? A time of sadness where many moan, cry? The bells are ringing. Please, tell me why. I hurry toward the knell tolled as if I know, while my heart feels […]

Searing brightness blinds us and the grains of gray sand are so sharp, they cut our feet. We can find nowhere to pause, sit, and rest. Trudge onward. No sign of water, except the ever-present […]
Aught Regard
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ I hear there is something new called Thread that I must join and follow to be au currant. To make some fat cat have even more bread. Does this have aught regard for what I want? Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, […]
Bid: Four No Trump
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ I gave up being normal when I was just a kid. It wasn’t something that I planned, just something that I did. What others found to be correct made me flip my lid. Do not bother trying to change me, I won’t accept your bid. I watch our […]
As Long As

It’s All Good
People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ If I could imagine a bright future? But I do all the time, yet short on specifics. My dreams are not the triumph of one side over the other. Balance, which is really just constantly slipping one way or the other. Where life and death sit down together […]
