Many Lovely Things
Many Lovely Things ~~~~~ Coming to terms with the world at small. Do you think that means anything at all? Time: construct for cosmic construction. Pimple on God’s face: a pustule eruction. We say, hey Mom, hey Mom, look at this. We’re hushed, pushed away, just ignored. How can anyone simply ignore our bliss? Till […]
What Would You Do?
What Would You Do? ~~~~~ When my father told me, late in life, His regret he’d never gone to Spain. Might as well have said, play the fife. I wish I’d have asked him to explain. I think it had to do with the romance, an odd allure of the revolution there. Told as if […]
What Shall I?
What Shall I? ~~~~~ When I have fallen to the blows Lie in the gutter; no one knows, Struggle to stand up on my own, Refuse to take help from anyone. What shall I do then? Since none live without sin. If I shall be forgotten by kith and kin, And lie awake with nowhere […]
A Bit
A Bit ~~~~~ The strange and strained current year is finally, at-last, coming to a close. Strange and strained to me; I suppose, There must be other people who fear That we have gone completely insane. Could we be better, tomorrow dawn? Or are we better dancing on the lawn? We must do our best […]
It Won’t Matter
We’re walking on the Mobius strip of time, Thinking we know where it begins or ends. Those on the other side are equally sublime, Busy making enemies and courting friends. Pretending there’s something more to being, We move along to the next part of our path. Not quite understanding what we’re seeing. It won’t matter […]
The Lamentations of Phileas the Lesser
The Lamentations of Phileas the Lesser ~~~~~ I lay awake in the dead of night. She came and took me by the hand, Raised me up to a wondrous sight, the beauteous dread out upon desert sand. The Milky Way’s starry glory overhead; I wished she’d left me alone, awake abed. I told her this […]
Whip’s Crack
Whip’s Crack ~~~~~ I wonder what lies yonder, It looks so very far away. As I draw near, I ponder. Will it always look this way? What if I turned my back? Or it turned its back on me? Turning fast as whip’s crack, Will it look the same or be? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, […]
Shall We Dance?
Shall We Dance? ~~~~~ Gather ye the fortunes. Gather ye the graces. Let the gods walk and let the mischiefs play. Gone now the sorrows. Gone now all the pain. Out into the cosmos, More than we can say. Here now the turnings, All seasons light to dark. Quiescence, resurrection Dance eternity’s rondelle. ~~~~~ Peace […]
Only Who I Am
Only Who I Am ~~~~~ Words, for me, wind down My art draws me, to paint All my words, all the words Any language, form, intent Incomplete to curry change Still I grasp I’ll persist, scribbling Verses, essays, stories, more Offering vision, being, truth My truth, which the universe Fills or drains, ebbs or flows […]
Not One Whit
Not One Whit ~~~~~ Living nature cares not one whit For all of our hopes and glories Obviously, we do not give a shit We’re busy ending all our stories ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and let me know what you think.
