A Mirror’s Glass in Darkness
Always give your heart to those you can Everyone can hear what you might think Every time you open your mouth, speak Brilliant bon mots, also tarnished tropes Spew like vomit when you’re distracted At other times, though you feel focused Creating is your being when ideas dance Water beads sizzling in a searing […]
Trial and Tribulations of a Time Traveler
“I don’t know where I am or why they brought me here.” “You are in my space. You are here because I told them to bring you here. They have never seen anyone like you. You remind them of their maker. Did they tell you they heard his hair turned white overnight? They do not […]
Finally
Which comes first, The words or The thoughts Does either generate The other Do they speak To us For us About us In rhythms Movements Stone and paint Discovery Telling us Wisdom We cannot Express in words Deep thinking Below the surface Silent or Too difficult Too hear Midst daily clangor Our true being […]

That’s the Rub
