Anticipation

Glowing Moon ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ I sing the tune without notes, life, air, water, love and hate. Urgent laughter, birds and boats, indrawn breath which all await. Star birth and truth glowing, shadows contrast, seeds scatter, wafting aloft; a river flowing, small feet, rain go pitter-patter. Glorious crescendo in minor key within, without, […]

Plain or Fancy Inside

Reversal of Fortune ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ Some things and some people are quite plain on the outside. Still, might hide glory within. Or, a plain face may hide evil. Some things and some people shine like glass in the sunlight. Still, flash may cover the faux. What waits within, time knows. ~~~~~ People […]

Haven’t Fallen Down, Yet

Focus Group ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ So many bits and pieces, words and phrases splattered on pages like stars scatter the night. As we create constellations in our search for connection where none may exist, but why? Searching for understanding, myself and life; Am I scrying far-too-far from me, myself and I, for the […]

The Same Truth

Where Breath Becomes Air ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ So many bits and pieces, words and phrases splattered on pages like stars scatter the night. As we created constellations in our search for connections, where none may exist, but why? Delving to gain understanding; myself and life. Am I scrying too-far from me, myself and […]

Echoes, choes, oes, oes, oes

Crystal View Persuasion ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ Echoes come from far away,another time and place.Even if we live there,it’s lost in the deeps of space.I have heard it said,the beginning of wisdom arriveswhen we know what we don’t know. What if we have heard this wrong?What we know is somethingwhich we must strive to […]

In Our Youth

Light in Darkness ~ Philip Brent Harris ~~~~~ We each bring our truest selves when we start, yet, we’re told we learn what we’ve forgotten. Driving so rapidly past our days and scenery, we grab a snapshot of whatever we can hold. Doing so, we must lose the whole, the essence of our experience, what […]

Choice is Yours

~~~~~ ~~~~~ In this wOrld of ours gusts of winds         may drive us hither,              t h I t h e r,                   a n d   y  o  n. Fell us with a mighty blow ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ Ⅎ. Do you engage the rattle, battle or do you choose to lay low? ~~~~~ VOTE! People […]

Which Way to Fall

~~~~~ Come then, let us dance and sing to the swift strumming of guitars. Let us play and caper about, like children or mad fools who share a place that we have left behind. It’s not a land you’re invited to. You left long ago. You say not. It’s within your denial, harmony walks along […]

Sing to Me

~~~~~ Will you transport me somewhere divine? A city somewhere faraway; not holy, sublime I know your fingers have learned every street. Broad boulevards, alleys, and narrow lanes. Show me wonders I would not find on my own. Unless I have a thousand years there all alone. Yet, if I’m alone and the city is […]

Note by Note

~~~~~ What dance is this, if I may ask?Is it too capricious to explain?Yet, danced once, it’s easy to learn.Knowing now, I hasten to proclaim.Dance me the stars, the bottom of the sea.Metaphor cannot contain what this means to me.Take my hand and I will guide you step-by step.Everywhen, we shall always have laughed and […]
