That’s Why
That’s Why ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Most days my life is so crazy and confusing. It does not one bit of good to keep refusing.. I find no answers in the books I’m perusing I’m told it’s all about the winning and losing. And I […]
Matters More
Matters More ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ If I could save the world or me, oh, what a hard choice it would be. I’d choose to save the world, you see, except my lady love; she matters more than me. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is […]
Other Plans
Other Plans ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ If I knew I was dying, what would I say about me? To you who knew me best, better, perhaps, than I know myself. Still, I have secrets. We all have secrets. What will I say about my life? […]
All So Simple
~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ What’s a person to do? When every day there’s something new, war and violence, feeling blue. So, what’s a person supposed to do? Rich fools spout madness, though some agree, guns for all, that’s best. Don’t you see? Braggarts and […]
We Would Rather
We Would Rather ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ We might walk in beauty but are the night, because, we would rather kill each other. We listen to those who preach peace and love. We would rather kill each other. We are taught to love our neighbors […]
Projected (I hope)
Projected (I hope) ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Shades projected on a wall by searing brightness. A row of lipsticks, twisted open in shades of red, miniature missiles show all that’s left of us, less. Broken, no Rosetta stone translates sacred dead. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, […]
The Long View
The Long View ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ We all think that we mean a lot. History tells us the answer is not. All of the names, cited in books, future will give no second looks. Burnt cinders, Sol’s nova flash, nothing left to throw in […]
Invisibility
Invisibility ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Hello? Can you hear me? Can you see me? I hope you can because I fear I’ve become invisible. It’s not everywhere or all the time. It’s not at home or when I’m out in the world. In fact, it’s […]
Ere We Fall
Ere We Fall ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Who knows what we’ve lost in the cause of war? Music, art, novels, plays, poems, films and more. Bach, DaVinci, Cassatt, Monet, fodder of kings, Shakespeare, Elliott, Beethoven all gone missing. Would we find saviors numbered with the […]
How
How ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ All day long, we fought and wrestled. All night long, we talked and prayed. Drank deep, and broke all the vessels, not a one would quit, thus we stayed. In the end, we’d each got in our licks, blows, kisses […]
