Circular
~~~~~ My heart seeks answers to questions I do not know, know to ask or answer. Bemusing, I do not understand understanding. I cannot ponder, wonder which, I cannot conceive tenants of faith I do not believe. Existence, nonexistence, always, ever, always never. Everywhere, nowhere, Yet, always, always in the center. A pawn of fate, […]
Intent Ion
~~~~~ Minuscule beyond imagining, cation meets anion, sudden explosion, screaming outward, all directions, growing, spinning, spiraling into a being vast beyond comprehension. Thirteen point eight billion years alive, expanding, encompassing life, teaching, learning, amazing, baffling, Inexorable. Examining from within, delving diligently, piecing together a totality puzzle, no sample image, unrecognizable wreckage ruins or futures. Concepts, […]
Love is All
~~~~~ Ancient before time, impenetrable void waited,, crawled from its atomic shell instantaneous illumination flared. Newborn this moment, a swirling figure moves, is every moment. Innocently wise, hopeful, in constant conflict. Cooperation in every interchange, full of wonder, every and all stories. Worth living for, growing, expansive, worth dying for, each instant, all mirrored within […]
The Elements
~~~~~ Listen until you hear the winds blowing, exploring, seeking places we may not go. Whistling through rocks, chaparral, singing the mountains, the planes, and the oceans. Cries out the pain of storms, shrieks terror, whines loss, the loneliness of scoured land, the fear of destruction, as powerful as war. Do you hear the crackling […]
No More
~~~~~ A dolorous dirge, hidden in the depths of space and time. Time the liar. Faster, slower, changeable, not the same for you and me. When density, elevation, heat, speed, motion do not match, compare, how then might I or anyone opine any triumph or tragedy? We have or see emotion, pain and waiting will […]
Tail of the Worm
~~~~~ Beneath the surface of the shadow, Live the voices, Who listen to the voices. Ordinary people Acting in extraordinary ways. An unexamined life, Ancient wisdom cautions, Is not worth living. Or is it, An uncommitted life denies scrutiny? To fully live Requires a willingness to pay, Pay a price, bear a burden, be brave. […]
How Foolish We’ve Become
~~~~~ He walked through town, Late one afternoon, Wearing a Cheshire smile. I asked him, “why?” And he said, “Come walk with me awhile.” We walked on, Looking for a dark street, A lawn, an open field, Somewhere we could stand Or sit, or lie. Manufactured light, Obscured, occulted, A phrase turned oddly, I thought; […]
Blue Sky, Gray Ocean, Sunlight Halo
Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Driving down the California coast, A day overcast in shadowed gloom. Crisp, windy, made for a brisk walk. A hole in the clouds opens, circular, Reminds me of blue sky, other days. Time, not better, yet a form of magic. Light limns […]
Grow Silent, Listen, Hear
~~~~~ From the Minor musings of Phileas the Lesser I wonder if I shall ever find Wonder, magic, all together? Not bits and bobs, flotsam Scattered through my life, Apprehended by my perception. Expressed through my creativity. In our world, our universe, Put together just so, Where life rises and life falls, Each in proper […]
In This Instant
~~~~~ Wherever humans have been, there has been war In this instant there is time to change how we are Wherever humans have been, there has been peace In this instant there is time to let all conflict cease Wherever humans have been, we ward community In this instant there is time to know all […]
