Our Human Nature

A real aspect always part of a person’s life;
One that can bear fangs and pangs of strife.
 
A living barometer replete with its choices;
Leaving each of us puzzled, full of voices. 

It prays on our very emotions and naiveté, 
Leaving us at times...

Premium Member Swamp Life: Human Nature Contest
Swamps are like places where dinosaurs roam  
shadowed by ancient moss-draped trees.        
A prehistoric world in shades of green.            
I paddle my pirogue through algae foam....

Premium Member The Ecstasy and Agony of Human Nature
Star-dusted peaks you seek on love's golden moonbeam bliss,
Feeling the rapture of whipped-cream desire in a whir;
Human experience wrapped in euphoria's kiss,
The ecstasy and agony of human nature...

Throes of living with woes, lost love's pathos reminisce,
Soul-groaning, heart-moaning; unwanted guests' bereft slur;
Wallowing human exist falls in...

Human Nature

souls take shape
live for peace or
discord
seek life’s answers
to the why and who
created
beings
of all kinds
to live
in sunlight
and shadow
toiling and toying
with the nature of drives
needs
which make them human

The Kissing Tree - Human Nature
Spring is the best time of the year for this old crabapple tree. Winters are too lonely and summers too hot. Autumn is nice but people prefer the lake or forest trails. But spring always brings visitors and when they come, I always share the...

Human Nature
Why in a world with so much wrong
Do some stand by the age old song
Of hurting others, in word and deed
And ignore the basic Christian creed 
Of honoring those who walk with you,
And instead pander to the few?

Human Nature
You can only love it,
bare with it,
turn around and forget it...

Building Human Nature
The diversity of beliefs have collectively demoralized 
the sanctity of attaining wisdom and respectfully sharing
the exchange of knowledgeability by compartmentalizing creativity. 
This makes us..............................
willingly grasp onto the idea of fighting and murdering to
expressively uphold what is fundamentally a moralizing of humanity. 
Instead of communicating uncertainty...

bask in the moisture
star illuminated sky
two mold into one
splendid reverberation 
nature combined with our love

Let's Die
It was a height of 250 metres,
But I wasn’t afraid;
I looked down
And there wasn’t even my shade.

The sun was already jumping
But with a low speed,
“ I can perform better,
 I am not going to give the lead.”

Took a deep breath
And I was in air,
Time stopped,
And...

The Function of Police
I hear a lot of shrill people these days
saying that we should defund the police,
as if these people just disappearing
would somehow make all of our troubles cease.

I could point out things would be a sheer hell
if law enforcement was to disappear,
but that truth is obvious...

Life's a Lot Like Baseball
“Life’s A Lot Like Baseball”
 
Life’s a lot like baseball, neither is a simple game.
Each is filled with the stuff of life.
Both, so much the same.
Complete with hard work and training, nearly every day.
In each, one learns to catch and throw; 
and taking bases along...

Premium Member Loving Defiance
Punishing for revenge,
could this occur to natural systems
without capacity to imagine alternative futures?

Punishing others for their defiant behavior,
actions and words stronger than ignorantly ignoring,
bolder than merely angry with Other 
and our defenseless selves

But how much more
to accurately measure fair consequences
for words of anger
compared to more...
