What’s the Sequestion?

~~~~~ Why do we do the things we do, Pushing on through our pain? Why do we do it, when we know One option is to not walk again? I don’t think my pain leads to that; Yet, past fields, up hills we climbed. Still, I didn’t fall on my face, splat, A small grace, […]

Be Prepared

~~~~~ Prepare to hide your children. We are being invaded. Can occupation.be far behind? How can we be invaded? The troops belong to us. Have you started to worry? When will the teargas And the flashbangs change Into nerve gas and grenades Prepare to shelter your elders If they have not fallen To a virus […]

Answer to an Unasked Question

~~~~~ Passionate Pacific my daily inspiration, sunlight, sand and surf. Murmured messages wash on shore, chased by crashing waves. Warm strand, moonlit, twinkling on the swells, reflecting earth, Wind, water, weather form transient art, the sea gives and takes. Humbled by such vastness of ocean, rolling beyond the horizon, This and more besides to stir […]

No Guarantee

~~~~~ Blow it up or blow it down, No point us hanging around. We start again as a beginner If we lived as saint or sinner. Still and all, it’s been before; Not by us, so now our chore. Some craven but some brave, Dumb, brazen sum’s a grave. What it is, not bad nor […]

Healing?

~~~~~ What would we ask for, If there were only one thing? Would we walk along Streets and lanes, searching Wondering what could be The right choice, the easy answer, Not only for you, But also for me? Perhaps, we are seeking Is not something we can have, a fortune, Talent, great wisdom, immortality, But […]

Wag Chins, Flap Gums

~~~~~ Well, they all do make really valid points, Though their topic of discussion is unclear. If we all sit down and smoke several joints; We will then believe we’ve nothing to fear. How do we deal with overdose information, Religion, drugs, sex, TV, or move a mouse? Whatever, we succumb, labor or recreation, King, […]

Still on the Shelf?

~~~~~ A dog-eared page In an old book Mirrors my mood. Phantom reason, Marked as special. I fervently hope For unknown purpose, An unremembered time Or accidental. Compressed too long, Hidden, neglected, fragile, Forest and trees Broken off, lost. Handle with care. My life attacks, A whirlwind child. Imperious Nature, Unaware, uncaring. My dog-eared self, […]

Quirks Work

~~~~~ Writing in the first person, how can I be I sure I am writing as me? Even if I think I describe true events, what in my mind’s eye I see. Can I recount truthfully pictures I find lurking in my own memory, Directly, I start to reinvent, interpret, reconceive who I was, will […]
