Make It So
Make It So ~~~~~ In this frightening, contentious time of pandemic, sheltering at home as nearly as we can, we have the time to think about how we have spent our days until now. We have time to pursue thoughts of the dreams we held for our life before reality moved in to stay. In […]
Temporal Expense
Temporal Expense ~~~~~ Do we now, Muddled men, Fetished females, Spend time Like bits of metal, Paper, information, To prove We are living. Collected, reflected, Twittering birds Speaking, seeking, Connection, Within Books of faces, Without Recognition. Incomplete meaning, Distant acquaintances, Lost friends. Some remembered, Many forgotten Or never met Face to face, Impersonal, Person-to-person call. […]
A Hint of Moon
A Hint of Moon ~~~~~ With a whimsically dramatic Play of color, the sun swoons, An overwrought stage diva. She disappears, with a faint trace, the perfume of a lover Who has slipped silently, yet Swiftly from a secret tryst. The darkness embraces her, As his sparkling cloak falls Softly, covering her absence, With, a […]
I’ve Heard
I’ve Heard ~~~~~ Certainty, it’s said, is fleeting It may vanish upon meeting Or offer you a warm greeting You hope it will last a lifetime Pray that it will be your lifeline Most lose it, such a rife crime It’s ephemeral, so it’s precious Though it can turn you vicious Believe it, it’s gone, […]

Simple Complexity ~ Complex Simplicity
Simple Complexity ~ Complex Simplicity ~~~~~ Why then must poetry’s meaning be couched, Like the imagined sea-sound heard in a shell? May fleeting beauty, convoluted truth be vouched, Said simply and offered crystal-clear from a well? Will it help if I use night to presage age or death, Flying birds or sunsets standing in for […]
Light, A Distant Vista
Light, A Distant Vista ~~~~~ Responsible, preoccupied, needs, daily duties, urges to create. Atlas beneath my half-sky, inventing my truth in beauty before I am late. Days, time-paced, sheltered, stopped, shoulds and musts to meet and answer While so few sought either truth or beauty; they didn’t pay the financier Is shielding the candle flame from […]
Distance to Anywhere ~ Would You Like Coffee With That?
Distance to Anywhere Would You Like Coffee With That? ~~~~~ What does it matter, How I feel, What I do? Infinitesimal or less In the list of all Things, stuff, piffle, Merely a passing moment. A falling leaf, An ant’s call to battle, Depth of the ocean, Distance to anywhere, Near or far. All different, […]
What I Always Expected
What I Always Expected ~~~~~ He was sure he could encompass it all Inside of his brain, his body, his being/ A world grown oh so incredibly small; With little work all would be agreeing/ But we did not agree, and battles raged, Despite how tightly all were connected. Not yet evolved, our animal’s uncaged […]
Process of Elimination
Process of Elimination ~~~~~ A thought occurred to me and I’d like to get it straight, All beings, high or low, saint or sinner, all eliminate. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me know what you think. See more of my […]
