Get Along With You
All of us Pawns In a world Full of Sound and Fury With overtones Undertones Key changes Abrupt screams Staccato bullets Muffled by Frail flesh Silenced forever Leaving Rivulets red Brains, gore, guts Belying any Intelligence Fellow feeling Promoting Hatred Shouted at us Until We go mad Forget The tragedy Is not Intolerance Paranoia Fear […]

Light, A Distant Vista
Responsible, preoccupied, needs, daily duties, urges to create Atlas beneath my half sky inventing my truth in beauty before I’m late Days fast-paced, so full of shoulds and musts to meet and answer When so few seek either truth or beauty; they don’t pay the financier Is shielding the candle flame from darkness worth the […]

Be
The wonders Of museums Uninitiated cannot Understand Dark night Illuminated Life filled A mother’s love An old woman’s Quiet moment Patient, meditative Reflection Snow-covered land Weary rest Looking within To see the future What she hopes She will see Husband or child Gone Ahead, before Not yet returned From day’s labors Night carousing Lonely watch […]
Neck Deep in the Big Bloody
OR What It’s Not About (Warning: This piece runs over 3,700 words. If you do not feel you can read it all, I urge you to read as much as you can, plus the intro and conclusions.) I’m finding it difficult to wrap my head around the insanity I see on the news and in […]
