Premium Member Pompous Pied Piper
Like the pompous pied piper leading the way,
chirping his tune of a dawning new day,
frustrations were championed, oh how we followed,
the ego stuffed shirt of a suit cold and hollow.

From the top of the hill, he showed us the view,
convincing our eyes it was harshly...

Premium Member The Funeral Urn
“we look for that that does not come and go
it cannot be organic form, subject to decay 
thoughts and beliefs are fickle, how little we know
yet come what may, our inner child continues to play”


The 'umbilical cord', 
hereby symbolic, 
its severance
where
initiated,
a soul of three,
and then...

Premium Member Love, the Hard Conqueror
These darts of love fly from our eyes
Adrip with passion's poisons clear and sweet,
Our aim that of another heart's defeat,
Its mute enslavement to our sighs.

Love blasts holes of unexpected size
In our defense; no wall will be respected.
The briarbarbed fence of self-content
Is breached, and trampled, with...

Premium Member So Many Personalities
So many voices, some pulling, others pushing, one spearing.
I feel the spear, and know she will not stop until I acknowledge her
What is it? 
What do you want?
She gives me some directives knowing I will rebel 
and rebuke them.
She never gets her way.
She wants me...

Looking out through the panes
        of the window of time
     The curtains pulled back
        by a sad aging mime
        actors...

Premium Member Fly Home Fairy Queen
All I want is time to write,
A little space,
Some oak trees and butterflies.

All I want is a cardinal to land
A few feet away
on God's terms 

All I want is the spirit to work
And think and pray and play
on my own terms

That will be more than...

Premium Member Stepping Ahead After Divorce
Divorcing self from awful negatives
I step ahead, bouncing through God’s power
Gladly inspired with cheerful directives
To share love's bliss and peace of grace-shower.

Triumphing against selfishness-trial
Freeing from “me-I-mine” so prison-bound
To reach-out for others, sans betrayal 
My heart sows goodness seeds on kindness-ground.

Persisting against vain personal gain
I join...

World Economic Report, April, 2012
Fear feasts on our insides
And wrecks decision-making
Evil jumps in with glee
And another one loses trust

And another one down
And another one down
And another one loses trust

Evil grins
At what might have been
As another one loses trust

Housing fails
Markets, too
And countries follow suit

“Be afraid
Be very afraid”
Used to be a...

Premium Member What Will We Tell Our Grandchildren
In years to come as we talk to our grandchildren, I hope that we all can say,
I remember when SARS arrived, the worry, the concern that troubled day.

A fellow Infection Control Practitioner confided that “I feel so all alone, 
We’re dealing with a disease, how...

Android In Love

Recellularized Android 887-V landed directly from the void
On unexplored planet 59-G in sector 23 today   
Electromagnetic shifting components and arrays deployed as planned
Without delay several probes were cast
Placed on display on the baron world
On the cold blue frozen rocks and oceans

Premium Member Love Manifesto
It is love, not loss, we expect,
we long for and belong with,
we seek within
a cooperative economic network
rather than a competitive gain-over-loss
capital-rooted value system.

Love evolves more resonantly
and robustly
than fear
and hatred
and apathy
and dispassion,
yet we have planted our economy in competition,
in Win v. Lose survivalist presumptions,
where losing wants...

Who Am I, I Am a Monster
pestilence restlessness sedatives

medative hesitation effects my relevance

i should repent
i never new what i was trying to attempt
i believed it was from hell i was sent
because once you get...
