Canto Xxvi Hell Translation Part1Enjoy, Florence, because you so great are
That on seas and ground your wings you flutter,
And down in hell your name around spreads far!
I found five, among the stealers’ clutter,
Your citizens which then made me ashamed ,
And you sign of honor do not utter.
But if close...

Love of Wisdom: PhilosophyWhy isn't philosophy written most wisely
in poetic verses,
redundantly both-and
analogical ecology?
Declassifying classic philosophic historians
continuing relentless great debate
about which is most important,
truth or beauty?
This same political philosophy pit

from scientific recovery
as economics shifted smart wealth
away from intimate health.
When did love of...

I am not into labels, and I don't believe in fables
And I know that God is real
He's more than invisible, more than tangible
He's more than a feel
And I not denominations bashing
But the reasons for them is because of difference of opinions
And what's with the...

Your coach swings.
Swing by concussion.
Train my love oh train my love.
Train my love.

The Point Is ThisUntil a point is posited,
Its position is unclear;
Whether on a pencil
Or belief embraced so dear.
Until a point is set upon
A concrete place of view,

Its validity not true.
Until a point is taken up
And held close to the breast,
Defended and declaimed upon,
Its measure is...

The Ruba'Iyat of Creteil Lake - Part Twenty-OneThe Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Twenty-One
Meantime the Faithful gathered for prayer sans delusions
His Holiness excused himself for the usual ablutions --
The Commandant backtracked to an official car for pow-wow --
Lights dimmed as indoor lights were turned on for inspections
Starch stiff blue-black uniforms and...

The Number 27In the pages of history
there's a baffling mystery
about the passing of the crew
since eighteen ninety two.
Bright stars turned to dim
whether fat or slim,
no one's young, no one's old,
they were all in same horde.
As I saw the leaves fell,
the blowing wind came...

AgainIf my tongue I could just tame
Your dear heart I would not maim
Every time we play this game
Seems the outcome is the same
First my quick words cause a strain
Then my impulse is to blame
So again I’ve caused you pain
All I feel now is the shame
Please...
