This, Too, Shall Pass
~~~~~ What distinguishes, creates demarcation between living and life? Can they be divided or shared, like pieces of pie cut with a knife? Or. only the viscera of being alive, breathing and eating and shit. Simply work, chores, needful daily obligations; that cannot be it. In relationships you always hear such a lot of talk […]
Beautiful Dreamers
~~~~~ Are you liberal, conservative, radical, stoic, centrist, anarchist, green? You can fill in the blanks I’ve missed. Maybe you want to bring back the Wobblies or worship the sun. What you label yourself is much less important than what you believe. Can you tell me why you believe, what you believe and why […]
Life Until Now
~~~~~ Life Once, I lived a life Such as he, who sat and pondered endlessly. Turned each moment upon its head, abandoned quickly when it proved dead. Convinced each battle fought end in winning, damn the cost. Ever, only to regain myself, who wondered, wandered, lost. Until Nourishing love illuminated spirit, encouraged me to grow, […]
Sense is Lost
~~~~~ Still and all, I wonder at sounds heard in the depths of night, and if they are the sorts of things that might give me a fright? Not the ghoulies, no, nor the ghousties, nor the long-leggedy beasties, but the bombs that go boom in the light, The ratta-tat-tat of rapid-fire weapons and bloviated […]
The Elements Redux

On the Home Front
~~~~~ We brand ourselves, the land of the brave, home of the free So proud, as we ignore our own ignorance, hatred and, bigotry Decrying machine-gun maniacs, who murder on a bloody spree While we’re Earth’s premiere purveyor of advanced weaponry Righteous people who never sing the song of them, only of me It should […]
Thoughts About Love
~~~~~ Love: You know you are in love when you’d rather be driven crazy by the person you’re with than be sane with anyone else. Love is always hopeful, kind, generous, aware, supportive, accepting, nurturing and able to withstand blows without breaking. Love can be implied or suggested, but never truly defined by what it […]

See more […]
The Elements
~~~~~ Listen until you hear the winds blowing, exploring, seeking places we may not go. Whistling through rocks, chaparral, singing the mountains, the planes, and the oceans. Cries out the pain of storms, shrieks terror, whines loss, the loneliness of scoured land, the fear of destruction, as powerful as war. Do you hear the crackling […]
