If We Thought?

~~~~~ How would we live our lives If we thought we could change them? How would we manage, if we could go back In time and change only one thing, just one? How far back would we go? Are we sure? Perhaps, it’s something simple, a turn in the road. What might happen, turning left, […]

Epiphany

~~~~~ Artists and writers may be tortured souls Constantly searching for a way to express That is so cogent and so clear we awake. Oftentimes creatives in front of the curve. They create a vision to show you, tell you, Difficult to show on the page, the canvas, In the dance steps, notes of the […]

And Promises to Keep

~~~~~ I would climb upon the stars So I may hear your thoughts. Live, with my pain and scars, As I am jumping over aughts. To be dancing upon the grass. I wonder which side I am on? If it’s all the same, I will pass, A gilded plate my name is on. All, and […]

Without a Sound

  ~~~~~ Whether you’re young or old, They push you down, pretend You do not lie sprawled and Bleeding, there on the ground. Without courtesy, call to action, March by you, without a sound. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me […]

The Cynic, Silent Killer

~~~~~ Boots on the ground come marching, marching. Boots on the ground come marching one by one. Boots on the ground taught to appear steely eyed, While they wield the arsenal that’s been supplied. Boots on the ground come marching, marching. Boots on the ground come marching two by two. There to support law enforcement; […]

How About You?

~~~~~ If the reality of a world-wide pandemic, staggering unemployment, systemic racism and the current unrest, protests and violence sparked by another police murder of a black man haven’t made you realize we need to change, nothing will. Not all black people are criminals. Not all white people are racist. Not all cops are bad. […]

Knitting Lesson

~~~~~ All of our greedy, gutless impeders Who aid the spineless fool at large, Do all they can and nothing much To keep their simple tool in charge. Dear Pleader; we must discharge & Moscow Mitch, knit up by Defarge. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, […]

We Must Change

~~~~~ The call was loud and clear today, The jackboots of Ares set to march. Petty baboon pleader, a sullen fool. Tear gas, storm troopers, photo ops For ego strokes, pats his own back. We must scream No, bottom to top Take to the streets, for it must stop. We must gather in peace and […]

Brevity, the Wit of Soul

~~~~~ Could it be I finally understand, with my limited perception, that I am but briefly in the band no matter my talent or reception? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me know what you think. See more of my creative […]

Lies and Truth

Lies and Truth ~~~~~ What ways we wander, wonder why. Search, seek twisted trails, tall tales. While we follow fools, venal villains, meaning morsels, broken breadcrumbs. Lost, languishing, mired meanders, wide walkways, paved pathways, rural roads, Long lanes, dusty drives, graveled grades, sleek superhighways, cacophonous cities Electronic expressways lead, lure to tips, digital dead-ends, while […]
