The Giftie Gie Us
The Giftie Gie Us ~~~~~ How then cannot we see our own true selves? The poet’s answer realized in our social media. Where we play half-fools, do naught by halves, constantly connected, from Twitter to Expedia. Do we ever look in this mirror that we created? Join we the grand communion, or voyeurs only? We […]
Beneath the Grass
Beneath the Grass ~~~~~ What would it feel like, any fun, to live to be one hundred? My imagination says it would be less fun and more dread. With luck, still shuffling about, able to pee upon my shoes. not rolled around as deadwood, by someone I don’t choose. Perhaps I will be non-compos mentis […]
Turning a Blind Eye
Turning a Blind Eye ~~~~~ I think that car is flirting with me, it honks its horn, blinks its lights, no people anywhere that can see, Will I get a ride to see the sights? I walk closer, make it sure it saw. It’s mad, horn honks, lights blink. I run, afraid, it will bring […]

All, Together
All, Together ~~~~~ I have shown you wonders beyond imagination, revealed to you the smallest parts of my being. I find you within me, yet, you don’t understand languages to, of creation too gross and too subtle to speak to you. I will guide a minor poet’s hand. I am every drop of water and […]

I’m intrigued by what I’ve found and will be exploring their possibilities and posting them at intervals, with haiku […]
Before We Know
Before We Know ~~~~~ How would we have turned out, if we’d had four arms and hands, instead of the measly two we got? Could this be true on distant sands? Other beings like this in our cosmos, if we ever chance to meet, say hello, one-hand shake insult, you suppose? I expect a long […]
Next?
Next? ~~~~~ Do we start restricting our children much too soon, compromising their ability to shoot for the moon? Yes, they are exuberant at home, out in public, too; dangers abound and they must learn this from you I’m sure I was such a child, drove the adults nuts. smart, curious; I’d ask, remark no […]
I Wonder?
I Wonder? ~~~~~ What would I do with me, without you? Do any of us know what might be true? More than I was, less than I have been, A piece of me missing, no nib in my pen. scratching at life, yet, leaving no mark, like rubbing two sticks without a spark. Words are […]
I Will Wait
I Will Wait ~~~~~ I sense I am on the verge, terra incognito. Vast, unlimited potential, possibility, still unknown, glowing, the aura of discovery. How may I explain without sounding as if I am lavishing on myself undue praise, or my mind has slipped; I’ve become a fool? In writing, painting, creating, manifesting mastery; not […]
