The Myth of Twos

  Not long ago for no sure reason, in quiet, I felt completely lost Why I could not then and cannot now fathom any meaning here Arguing the genesis of this dark emotion or mayhap a future cost Frankly, it worried me, filled me with an unknown, unnamed fear Where everything I could devise, create, […]

Let’s Pretend

  Some people think that to do anything there is only one way I don’t know how they can believe this no matter what they say But small minds only hold small ideas with nothing left spare With no room then to reason, choose and nothing they can share When confronted with world problems they […]

You’re a Real Card ~ Part 4 ~ Diamonds

Sparkling diamonds sharp and gleaming summer bright Carry the promise of the Spring into the new day’s light Everything is focused, clearer  on a sunny, summer day You can take on the whole wide world, live life your  way Bright-red suffuses the early-morning summer sunrise As you briskly stride, your chosen road before you lies […]

Someday Soon

Art Isn’t Practical. Says Who?

In an Instant

  Sometimes in deep hours of night, insomniac, I think I know the answer While other times, in the brightest light of day, I’m much less certain Perhaps my problem is I don’t really even know the question to ask here When will ever I have a moment to learn, while I face such a […]
