Origins
Like the tale
Of the sun and the wind
Coaxing the coat off a man
Each poem inspires another
The wind is the enforcer
Using brute strength to get his way
The sun is the persuader
Soft and warm and winning
The chicken or the egg?
Oh that oh so old dispute
If a tree falls in the forest
Does it make a sound?
Yes, if a poet ever heard the question
While eating a chicken omelet.
Where did Wolverine really come from?
I'll probably watch the movie after I finish the comic
Like Rose
I believe in kindness.
The tiger or the lady?
Maybe both
Seeking to be the creator of her own testaments
To overcome her past
She wishes to live a life of worship
She walks her path
With her heart open
Influenced and inspired
By the stories and questions of others.
