Things

Things to adorn yourself.

Things for your home.

Things of a thousand kind, 

what do you own?

 

Gather it all til you have everything,

but know this that when the day’s done –

 

despite all your things

you don’t have a damn thing

if the sun sets…

and you’ve got no one.

No Regret

You can buy land and home

across this world made of stone,

gathering more into barns than the rest.

 

You can travel and see

every sight there may be

under Heaven from East to the West.

 

You can spend every day

finding more ways to pay,

grabbing all you can possibly get.

 

But remember there’s something

worth far more than these…

to die without any...

An image of a prior poem written many years ago whilst in a playful but meditative mood. Kevin's recent post reminded me of this one and now am sharing it for all to enjoy.

life's a broadway musical

 

It's hard to hear yourself thinking

when hate on hate is all around

 

there's a cry for freedom ringing,

its price, to keep another bound

 

our goals require such liberties

which defy our mental capacities

 

we hope it's worth all th...

The Writer's Plight

For some, the writer's plight may be staring at a blank page, fear of rejection, or resistance presented in various forms. For me, the writer's plight is being available morning, noon, and night to welcome a steady stream of pop-in visitors with expectations of providing conversation, cooking, cleaning, even childcare for hours on end.

With a Mona Lisa smile, I weigh the importance of what my d...

The stranger on her neck

Can you see the track marks up her arms?
I spy
With my wide eye
The stranger upon her neck.


Like the birthmark of a bloodhound,
Like a grisly flesh pinch,
An angrily sealed wound,
A Chinese burn,

A beating burning bruise,

A bloody blush:
The bite of the hungry.


Teeth she counted like cash,
The molars which paid her fine
And got her Alice's very own wonder

-ful escape...

Philae Shakes The Hand Of God

Philae Shakes The Hand Of God

What is the etiquette
for shaking hands
with God?

His ancient skin
so cracked
and old.

We have travelled far
to penetrate
His hide.

The cold, dark cosmos
squeals with
indignation.

“Know your place,
you of greens
and blues”,

sing the disregarded
stars and
planets.

We pass through
the blazing tails
of comets.

We burn money
in plasm...
