Within the Storm
In darkness, cold, lost, alone. Where stands the promised tower We are hard upon the shore Where the light, the horn, the bell, the clarion call we yearn to hear Razor close, we draw near the shoal Night shrouded, sewn up by dark clouds and dense fog; some pray Jagged rocks loom Bravely we […]
You’re a Real Card ~ Part 5 ~ Spades
Spades are for digging and spreading the soil Preparing good earth, what lies below is our toil Time to dig deep, plan growth for the future Seeking pattern and beauty you will nurture All through the winter short days grow longer Underground, our mind, promise, grows stronger Your subconscious provides answers you sought Opportunities […]
Not Where We’ve Been
In this time of gimme, pushing through people to a moldy, cheesy holiday song One which you have heard so very many times, you hate it, yet you hum along Gimmes stand before stores, hand outstretched and crawl through your mail slot Many of them fill real needs, food and shelter, help people that […]
Then, More Than Ever
The world and understanding it live poles apart, as do all of we Fatigue hangs my head, drawn earthward by depression, despair My eyes struggle to lift against the strain, find only conflict, greed Madness then might be my problem, believing we may live in peace Guns and drugs our cities fill, our prisons […]

Some days it rains and some days the sun does shine Doesn’t really matter much when I make them mine Yet if I’m low, dreary rain may blind me to the truth Other days, though rain mocks me, I am hail and soothe My thoughts don’t turn the world, or my feelings seasons Both rain […]
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
When I was a younger man, I’d tell you I thought I knew so much stuff I’m sure I believed I was more than smart and I knew more than enough It’s amazing I’ve found how much I’ve learned since, how smart become With help and luck, during my life between the short span […]
Enough, Just Enough
Time is money, money is time, though I’d like to see you eat either one The tokens we value, believe have worth, are extremely puzzling to me It’s symbolic I realize, they can provide little to no shelter by themselves Yet we treat them as real, pursue them with zeal, cry if we miss […]
