Brevity, the Wit of Soul

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Brevity, the Wit of Soul ~~~~~ Could it be I finally understand, with my limited perception, that I am but briefly in the band no matter my talent or reception? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is […]

Reaching

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Reaching ~~~~~ Between the spaces, between the spaces, where we forget to seek deity, ourselves. Fighting our fear, and our anger, feeding our needs and assumptions; reaching constantly for the golden ring, for power to remake our own existence, with no thought […]

Do You?

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Do You? ~~~~~ In local stores, so oft rearranged, move this shit here, that shit there, Do you feel confused and strange? You can’t find anything anywhere. The older you are, worse it seems, too jaded and too weary to explore. The […]

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Sacred Ground Gardens hidden in secret places Watched over by a gibbous moon Solar lanterns glow to life As nature dances and swoons Who am I an eye trying to understand Harmony that has existed through time Chaos its partner in every […]

Between

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Between ~~~~~ Falling leaves rustle Music fills the spaces between Swirling winds prevail ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ See more of my creative offerings and opinions at: Philip Brent Digital Art  Philip Brent […]

Aloft

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Aloft Walk upon the tightrope of the staff Tripping lightly on a higher reality Isolated, alone, in a crowded room Dancing aloft on the strings of music ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ See […]

In League

Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength,  Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ In League I would climb upon the stars So I might hear your thoughts. Though I am driving into bars, while jumping over draughts. I am hunting beneath the grass. I wonder which side I am on? If it is all the […]
