On Being Late
When I leave on time, I often arrive late When, I linger too long, I also arrive late I write one more email, like it can’t wait Hear one more song and ponder my fate I’m like many, my life not what I thought What I had wanted is not what I have got Not […]
Can Harmony Be known?
Rich harmonies spring forth, combine Close your eyes in wonder, so sublime Storyteller’s voice weaves magic above Within and without, a tale about love Chiaroscuro words shift, hide, reveal Bits of forever, our imagination steals Dreams, smoke, dim, bright, the same Win and lose, while playing life’s game Yet losers are winners, never doubt it […]
Just the Same
What is the frown I see upon your mug? It looks like someone really needs a hug That someone you refer to has a name Please use it; I’ll take that hug just the same
Let Us
Let us spew more bigotry and hate Into our sad and psychotic world I mean, quick, before it’s too late Words, bombs bullets to be hurled Terror, disaster, anxiety all around The news so black you cannot see No matter what you say or you do Storm clouds obscure your visibility Try to get seen, […]

Morning Lark
How will people of the future see The people who are alive this day Will they ken we act no differently We’re what we do, not what we say I believe it is not the words I write But that I share my hopes and fears Exploring this, our common plight Hope my words may […]
Nowhere We Belong
Would that we could, that we might, that we may Find the one true path we might follow one day Until that day, we will wander and stumble along More steps lost than gained, nowhere we belong
