A Matter of Heart
~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ People are made to be loved and things are made to be used. The confusion in this world is that things are being loved and people are being used. Unknown – At least I couldn’t find any attribution I am sick […]
Now or in the Future
~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Filled with chances, wasted hours, happy times the path ahead carries us onward, up a distant hill. What stops will we make, steps will we take, missed friends, opportunities, through fear, reason, self-treason? Challenges we’ll add to our path’s trials as […]
War and Music
~~~~~ The held breath Anticipated moment Awaiting Fall of the baton Order to attack The battle begun Enemy engaged Black notes Nebulous faces Hours of practice, drill Engraving response Into your body Your mind, being Carving moments Movements Into your soul Send up a prayer To a higher power Universal spirit Favored deity To watch […]
If
~~~~~ If I could save to world or me, oh, what a crazy choice that would be. I would choose to save the world, you see, but for my love, who matters more than the world or me. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a […]
Until Life Runs Out
~~~~~ Our world drowns in ignorance. No one knows. Our world smothers under ennui, apathy. No one cares. We inhabit tiny cages, think we’ve got it good, or not. We run, race, within our wheels, believe we are getting somewhere. We smoke weed, drink, pop pills, preen and pretend. We don’t see any of this, […]
Who Calls the Tune?
~~~~~ Regardless how brilliant, how noble I believe my thought Scorning how gracious, how grand I envision my dreams Futility wraps them up, a cerement, as small minds plot Hate, fear, want, and murder shape their selfish schemes I understand I can change the world, if just my little corner So I strive to add […]
Always Choose
~~~~~ Would that it be so, that we could redream our world in sleep. Though, I suppose, we must decide are we butterfly or human? Dreams are the seeds of change and hope; is it too great a leap? I shall wonder, write, share this vision, at least that is my plan. I will live […]
Asked Too Soon
~~~~~ Tell me the story of the man who kissed the moon, the woman who holds up the sky. Unless, I have asked too soon, you think I might be high. Though I have spent little time in bars, I have spent far too much in cars. Still, I always knew I could not escape […]
If We Give
~~~~~ When in doubt, I find it is better to whisper than to shout, Not knowing what life’s about, may lead to our final rout. Though, if we don’t dispute, we might learn another route. Distribute the ill-gotten loot, make it better for all, to boot. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is […]
What We Always Knew
~~~~~ “How can I move forward, when I don’t know which way I’m facing?” John Lennon These words, so true, set my heart racing. With all I’ve learned, know how to do, and cool and useful stuff I can make, why never have I felt comfortable with life, or even the direction I should take? […]
