People in the Clouds

People in the Clouds ~~~~~ It is time to put people over politics, country over capitulation and world over wealth. ~~~~~ Painting, oil, acrylic, water, color to attract our eye, we may travel to exotic places, without a need to fly. Meet people from far away, in geography or in time, marvel at their talent, […]

Get Along With You

Get Along With You ~~~~~   It is time to put people over politics, country over capitulation, and world over wealth. ~~~~~ 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, […]

It’s No Mystery

It’s No Mystery ~~~~~ It is time to put people over politics, country over capitulation, and world over wealth. ~~~~~ Why do we think we know what’s best for others, when we do such a laughable job living ourselves? Despite how we look, act, all are sisters, brothers, makes less sense than bookcases without shelves. […]

Pointed Regard

Pointed Regard ~~~~~   It is time to put the people over politics, country over capitulation, and world over wealth. ~~~~~ What balancing act, magician’s sleight of hand, do we use to simply live, make our lives feel grand? Who do we fool, do you suppose? Ourselves, others, no one? Do we merely pretend we […]

Rapidly

Rapidly ~~~~~ It is time to put the people over politics, country over capitulation, and world over wealth. ~~~~~ How rapidly all our days wing away, no matter how we measure time, its sway. In the cosmic scale, our time is less than not. We’ll be gone before we know what we’ve got. ~~~~~ Peace […]

The Spaces Between

The Spaces Between ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Shall we talk then, shall we sing, discuss Rachmaninoff, analyze Proust, remembrance of future things? Will you tell me no one knows what tomorrow brings? As musicians fingers fly, over strings, along the keys; quickly, quickly, come listen. […]

Matters More

Matters More ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ If I could save the world or me, oh, what a hard choice it would be. I’d choose to save the world, you see, except my lady love; she matters more than me. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is […]

Other Plans

Other Plans ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ If I knew I was dying, what would I say about me? To you who knew me best, better, perhaps, than I know myself. Still, I have secrets. We all have secrets. What will I say about my life? […]

The Long View

The Long View ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ We all think that we mean a lot. History tells us the answer is not. All of the names, cited in books, future will give no second looks. Burnt cinders, Sol’s nova flash, nothing left to throw in […]

Invisibility

Invisibility ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Hello? Can you hear me? Can you see me? I hope you can because I fear I’ve become invisible. It’s not everywhere or all the time. It’s not at home or when I’m out in the world. In fact, it’s […]
