Dressed in Motley Camouflage
What would you do, if you could do anything? Are you sure? Who would you be, if you could be anyone? Do you know why? Who would help, if you could help anyone, anywhere? How would you choose? Have you ever wondered why the world is the way it is? Why, or why not? […]
The Myth of Twos
Not long ago for no sure reason, in quiet, I felt completely lost Why I could not then and cannot now fathom any meaning here Arguing the genesis of this dark emotion or mayhap a future cost Frankly, it worried me, filled me with an unknown, unnamed fear Where everything I could devise, create, […]
Ad Perpetuam Memoriam
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 […]
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 […]
Does It Matter?
The world is full of liars, some good and some bad. Does it really matter? Storytellers, since ancient times, have told us stories that never ever were Mayhap happened not in the way the tales were told, for drama, for effect To seek the deepest truth of who we are, how we feel, and what […]
Enough, Just Enough

You’re a Real Card ~ Part 3 ~ Hearts
Hearts Hearts are home, family, friends that haven’t met yet When you realize opportunity has met preparation The joy when you win, but don’t remember your bet All of the simplest things with the greatest relation Hearts are the goodness that we all carry deep within Random acts of kindness, a gentle word, opened door […]
That Is Not It, That Is Not It At All
Please note: The following is about the movie Captain Phillips. I don’t believe it contains any spoilers, especially since the ending is a foregone conclusion. Some may not agree with me, so be warned. I feel impelled and qualified to write this for three reasons. First and weakest, I have a degree in film with […]
I Choose Peace
When in life we reach an age, a need, a trial, a test, the razor’s edge Delving deeper, pondering, reflecting, remembering, planning, hoping Denying, angry, we bargain, we grieve while craving peace, acceptance Until we understand acceptance is a choice with nothing and much to say I wonder the reason for my being, my […]
Beautiful Dreamers
Are you liberal, conservative, radical, stoic, centrist, anarchist, green? You can fill in the blanks I’ve missed. Maybe you want to bring back the Wobblies or worship the sun. What you label yourself is much less important than what you believe. Can you tell me why you believe, what you believe and why it matters? […]
