Best Favorably Poems

Swept up into piles; everywhere 
Abouts; in collected heaps all 
Around.               
It is almost as if the drab 
Streets were strewn with the 
Precious wealth of King Solomon's 
Gold!  ...

If I had more than my share of gold.
Ranked favorably with Mr. Gates,
I'd travel forth to see the world,
Try all the lavish food that sates.
December would find me cruising south
And taking all my friends along.
We'd sail the seas and live in style
And without worries sing...

Forsooth, no Rose
can favorably compare
to our singular Rose
of Soup

how she loops
our hearts into
enchanted bows

perennial of Love’s
eternal garden --...

I have a son
with more than his share of heart
and mindbody intelligence,
to comprehend vastness of Earth’s evolving history
and future demise,
to comprehend full emptiness of universes within
and without
co-arising unitarian polyphonic verses,
enough intelligence to reconnect hunted feelings
by our deep dark haunting insignificance
as a monotheistically disconnected
AnthroSupremacist species.

His own...

Can you smell the sweet fragrance of spring in the air 
New beginnings are upon us and together we'll share 
Long walks, holding hands with fingers entwined
Seeing buds springing forth, only by nature defined
Nourished favorably by the freshly melted snow
Feeling the spring breeze, setting our...

Not to play any blame game,

with monotheistic 'civilization',

Ours was daily mysterious,
sometimes near mystical, 
rapture;
a sensual yet platonic
dorm-mate love affair,
within the only male grad student corridor
at SFSU.

He was the presumably straight Vietnam veteran
southern white good ol' boy,
athletically studying Japanese,
with a gentle passion for young Japanese women.

Did his all things Japanese culture love
precede his...

I stumbled over Paul Tillich's translation
of the MessiahMentor's Other Great Commission.

The Great Commission we learned in Sunday School
was to go out and convert the barbarians
and savages to Christianity.

Yet this Other Great Commission feels like a necessary prerequisite,
like requiring Statistics 1
before wandering on into the further...

Groundhog day 2024 or Forty one days since 2023 Winter Solstice

Rather than be a day late
and dollar short, I opted   
to post poem acknowledging
the second of February,
where eponymous groundhog
gets his (most often male)
foretelling whether there will be
six more weeks of winter upon oblate
spheroid...

I esteem your presence
Glowing with glee 
At times, you do say things without thinking 
I’m the god of distress – 
You’re leaving me breathless 
Cutting me down like I’m some decaying tree
You don’t see how much you make me…
Guilty for your crimes
Taking the blame about...

1.) I'm stronger than I realize
2.) I'm not alone
3.) I'm not a failure

I prize this wonderful wisdom
I'm waiting for God's Kingdom to come!
I ain't no loner
Or a pitiful forlorner!
I am not alone in his eyes - 
Delete all those lies
In your head, David...
They don't need...

You move with effortless grace.
 As I steal a glance of your chiseled face.
A sheepish smile makes my heart stop beating.
 To not get hurt again, should I be retreating?

I am "damaged goods" and I can't take that away.
 Afraid that forever that's the way...

No regard to that  precious gift of life, no regard for that all 
encompassing love and mercy, nor  were they good stewards, 
keepers of the lands, air or water.
I pray this equation turns around favorably, but in the meantime, 
to my American Brothers...

What words do we choose for maximizing our ultimate accomplishments,
achieving our healthiest goals,
measuring our 100% successful therapeutic outcome projections?

Why do these words, 
and our feelings about these choices 
wave in and out of optimal happiness and prosperity, 
even when quantitative measures suggest our historical maximums...
