I Received Bad News Today, Reckoning

I received bad news today,
	Rather, the bad news I sought.
Thirty years ago, we played.
Attention turned; you walked away.
	Divorce ended, so I thought.

Love was stretched thin to forgive.
	You tried to ease me from my pain.
As friends we could never live.
Let’s start...

Once upon the start of time,
Universal Space was permaculturally natural systemic
intelligence
information--
Positively radiant development
of nondual co-gravitating systemic memory capacity,
progenerically,
pregeneratively,
birth-bang Father Solar System
revolving Mother Earth, 
their swirling twisting revolutionary prime relationship
diastolically reflected in Grandmother Moon's
monthly periods of fertile gravitational light
and dark newly dissonant transitions.

YangSun radiates Yin's EarthTribal...

On Receiving Bad News By Telephone
last night late
at ten o’clock no less
a telephone call
from my cardiologist
‘we’ve just found a mass in your lung’

Oh *****I thought
all I need.
My dear wife distraught
‘I’ve only just began to feel optimistic
no longer will your heart give up. 
Now this am I strong enough to go...

Bad News - Worse News
A fellow was feeling poorly,
so off to his Doctor he went.
After very extensive testing,
his energy was all spent.

So he spent the night, in a nice motel.
Next day, he went back home. 
As he entered his house, he heard  ringing,
it was his Doctor on the...

Bad News Travels Fast
Bad news likes to travel fast,
Much quicker than the good
And you can’t stop it even if
You pause to knock on wood.

It’s like a snowball, growing as
It barrels down a hill,
Unstoppable and uncontrolled
As oil from a spill.

Through phone or text or face to face
The knowledge makes...

How To Give the Bad News
How To Give the Bad News

By Elton Camp

To parents, there’s bad news to deliver
It makes the adolescent child shiver

“My dad is surely going to kill me
Unless some special trick I can see”

“You’re irresponsible!” he will say
“How can you do family this way!”

Son hit up on...

The Gospels share a negative understory,
thematic across all four.

However diverse these four voices may be
in describing and delineating Messianic love,
and political-economic priorities for poor spirits,
all four are univocal with anecdotal warnings:
If you are on the supremely powerful hoarding side
referring to those less fortunate than your...

Santa fell off the roof and broke his back
And on his head fell a large heavy sack
The shock of it was too great 
And Santa met with his fate
Cos'  he died from a fatal heart attack.

All over the world the good girls and boys

Bad News.
One day in May my life became
a city of veils,
closed off and unseen like
a year of fog.
I was in denial.

Could i restore my belief in my
lifes short career?
Learn to take away this howl
of bitter rage at my
healths inadequacies.
To maybe fufil a full life cycle of...
