Memory
Memory ~~~~~ Music alone can carry us to lands far-off in distance, time, where we remember or we imagine where we are, how we feel. The stately motion, a wandering river. Hear birds sing sweetly, as they flit along the shore. Though we sail past, leave them behind; they are with us, still. Do we […]
Upon
Upon ~~~~~ Echoes upon echoes. Where did the sound begin? Has it ended? Is it merely repeating what’s gone before? A big bang, that’s now a weak noise we hear as echoes upon echoes. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me […]
Climbing
Climbing ~~~~~ A lone, patient figure, without, within, Standing quietly upon a mountaintop, Deep within a forest, one with a waterfall, Steadily climbing up the stairs of the sky, Tenuous, strong, watcher and watched. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me […]
Express Me
Express Me ~~~~~ Art must be thrown ahead of what is happening now, like a quarterback’s pass must be thrown to where a receiver will be, not where they were when the pass was thrown. Similarly, I must decide what art is for me, besides pretty pictures. What appeals to me, mostly isn’t typical, but […]
Different Words
Different Words ~~~~~ At the end of yet another day miles and miles away from home. I wonder what’s true, that I have to say. Do I find new vistas, when I roam? Is it but a different view of life, like I stepped sideways, turned my head? My balance point, the edge of a […]
Near Maverick’s Beach
Near Maverick’s Beach ~~~~~ Sitting near the breakwater, listening to someone’s music, the gentle murmurs of waves. They build into my attention, crashing slowly on the strand, sea-walls ebb in slow-motion. A seal barks, its own reason, Foghorn moans alarm, each ten seconds; a private plane turns, angling to set-down at the airport on down […]
Until the Sun
Until the Sun ~~~~~ Wednesday morning, 2:00 am, as I think, write, wait for sleep to take me briefly into the land beyond all space, distance and time, where anything happens that I can dream, if only I can can remember my adventures. And, as strange as it may seem to some, whatever can happen […]
Only Happenstance
Only Happenstance ~~~~~ Can you or I hear the beating heart at the center of all existence? Here, there and everywhere, end to start. Measuring the length of time, Echoing the sound of our persistence. No longer can I call to find the time. You laugh; I must be old enough to bury. Despite our […]
The Memory of Fire
The Memory of Fire ~~~~~ What does the fire remember, about when it helped, when it harmed? No distinction, started from flame or ember, only we ignore its danger, when we know we should be alarmed. Is the fire wiser than we will ever be? Knowing the world needs fire’s destruction to engender new life. […]
Miracle of Grass
Miracle of Grass ~~~~~ Genius is found, pervades all creation, In galaxy, star, planet, land and nation. I will provide you a simple explanation, Awareness and miracles in combination. Miracle of grass, each life in its season. Erase our tawdry philosophic treason, Despite what any programmer keys in. Confusion, idea with reality, the reason. ~~~~~ […]
