Begin Again
I have seen the future and I have even lived within it. Difficult, you understand, It’s now when you begin it.
Change, Not Merely
Watching Hockney’s moving landscape wall; Startled by images of dead birds, morphing. Speaks of the seasons the landscapes portray And the ever-fluid nature of nature, of life. We speak of capturing magic in a bottle. Our vain attempt to seize everlasting life. Rendered here in pixels, moving, shifting; We find a vision which reminds us […]
Elemental
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Elemental ~~~~~ Now, we sing hymns of praise, preach sermons of damnation. Who do we laud? Who do we curse? We pretend we march in lockstep, tied together in a three-legged race attacking and retreating. Some people run, fight to finish first, […]
Do You?
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Do You? ~~~~~ In local stores, so oft rearranged, move this shit here, that shit there, Do you feel confused and strange? You can’t find anything anywhere. The older you are, worse it seems, too jaded and too weary to explore. The […]

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Possibility Now the grasses dance, the wind sings Music of warbling birds, the cricket chorus Here, now; no other place exists for us Joined in experience, each experience unique Others completely different, separate, alone Yet all the same, all connected at the […]
Life After Life
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Life After Life If I found the time and place Would I choose to change my face? Will I remember who I have been When I change my face again? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is […]
Do Us A Favor
Do Us A Favor For all the shooters out there, I have a request Whether you hail from the east or from the west If shooting many people jumps into your head Do us a favor, stay home, shoot yourself instead
All Deserving
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ All Deserving ~~~~~ Whether you think you lost or won No matter what your views may be On the president now, the last one Or, indeed, on the other forty-three The time has come to make a stand For all of us, […]
A Wink and a Sayer
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ A Wink and a Sayer ~~~~~ Sometimes I write poetry When I’m lying fast asleep It doesn’t seem fair to me These words I cannot keep Yet, since I don’t remember May not be good as I think Dream mind is more […]
