Listen
Listen ~~~~~ I listen to hear the rhythm of the world, songs of all the galaxies, spirals unfurled. I listen to my heartbeat, a lone songbird, any sound we live with, yet rarely heard. Hearing, listening are not the same thing. One uses brain and ears, one focus pings. Listen to the world and perspective […]
Change
Change ~~~~~ What will the future think of us? Assuming we somehow survive. Will they say, can you imagine, they believed anything like that?

Small and Petty ~~~~~ Find, for me, a small and petty god. One grown right from my local sod. Who, as me, thinks, acts and looks. Who can be branded by the books. A proper deity, for me, should sate The horded hunger I have for hate. Teach spare the rod, spoil the child, Make […]

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 […]
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 […]
Questions
Questions ~~~~~ What questions should I ask? Which “what if” should I imagine? What if I could wave my magic wand, change the world? At least, change my world. Am I wise, wise enough, to remake the world? Is this even the question I should ask, we should ask? Should I state instead what I […]
