Mere Language

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ Drifting into memory, real or fictional, all of our many moments are rewritten, enhanced or diminished per our needs. From the first instant, already we begin altering the story to best suit ourselves. We decide it was unimportant, so we misremember the color of the balloons, the […]

Theoretical History

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ What did the world look like before we arrived? What will it look like after we are years gone? In a distant future, will unknown alien archeologists dig artifacts from unmarked ground and wonder? What will they make of what they find and will their theories be […]

My Red, Wooden Stagecoach

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ I recall my red, wooden stagecoach big enough to ride, when I was five. It sported six, white horses harnessed in three matched teams of two in the traces. Reins ran to my child’s hands. When I walked it forward, the horse’s legs moved, while never touched […]

What to Do

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ The world is going crazy, I don’t know what to do. While I know I am crazy, I know you’re crazy, too. Since life is upside down, I’m standing on my head. By your feet all over town. That fills me full of dread. You could kick […]

It Can Be No Other Way

This is How

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ The passion of an argument, a good idea shared, batted back and forth, the token in a newly-minted game. The passion of love; soft, fierce and existential. This is how we find truth. Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Unite the World […]

No Travesty Implied

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ Dancing down the street talking to birds, flowers. Waving to cops, random folk, strangers I’ve yet to meet. A happy tune trips through my thoughts, to tempt a smile. Promise, I will share it today and often, whenever I may. How do we go through our days, […]

Enough, Just Enough

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ Time is money, money is time, yet I’d like to see you eat either one. Tokens we value, believe have worth, are extremely puzzling to me. They are symbolic, I know, they can give no shelter by themselves. We treat them as real, pursue them with zeal, cry […]

We Have Changed

People Over Politics, World Over Wealth ~~~~~ ~~~~~ The drama of the storm, as watched safely, behind glass, from a distance. Wind marks its approach. Lightning flashes, a crack of thunder soon after. Rain starts to fall, pounding on the roof and on our thoughts, mysteries. Knocking on a door held firmly shut. The rain […]
