Inconvenient WisdomInstant individual redemption
from predative enculturation
is overly spiritualized,
under naturalized,
rightwing evangelical dogma
more likely found in empire-building
strong business-loyalty development texts
than multi-enculturing
re-connecting
re-ligioning nature/spirit scriptures.
If spiritual
and capital redemption from baseline natural evils
is good news for individuals,
yet inapplicable to global EarthTherapeutic potential,
then what inconvenient truth remains
bad news for retributive

Inconvenient CauseWaking up another day
wondering should I
give my life away
I tried to take mine
it didn’t work easily
I guess for the others
the decision was free
and when your days get cold
only a few friends roll
so real life ain’t no drama
with some distant applause
its an inconvenient cause
I don’t have...

Limerick
Inconvenient LivesSelf confident
I would feel inconvenient
to be dead,
Yet relieved in freedom
from trimming toe
and finger nails
and receding hair
advancing down wrinkling neck
and softing shoulders.
Although not confident
I could grow
satisfied with fictional fame,
self-grandiosing glory,
I remain curious
how timelessly satisfying might emerge
historically famous fictions,
glories of grandly granted otherwise.
Confiding ancient secrets,
I could feel...

And slow-cooked at night,
Could it be that
Al Gore was right?...

An Inconvenient Truth About ChristmasAn Inconvenient Truth About Christmas
By Elton Camp
It’s a season of excess, lies, drinking and greed
Many celebrators spend far more than they need
That Christmas honors Jesus simply is not true
It is falsehoods about Santa that people spew
Besides, Jesus Christ is now a heavenly king
At best, an...

Old Age Is InconvenientThe day I fell off a chair and damaged my leg
I was amazed, for I had been resilient before
It took me a long time to heal my torn meniscus
I had bruised the bone too
I went from a wheelchair to a walker
Your damage might have been...

It May Be InconvenientIt may be inconvenient,
But the price of convenience could be the rain turning into a torrent.
It may be inconvenient,
But the price of convenience could see most living in a tent.
It may be inconvenient,
But the price of convenience could be to your children abhorrent.
It may be...

Inconvenient GutsBehind my back they whisper
I no longer matter
As my fortunes fail to prosper
While my hope prospects scatter
Clothes I wear they claim don't fit
While soles of my shoes and heel bend
Shirt sleeves tear and quit
Manners and thought patterns send
The wrong signal to friends who for me...

Be watchful if we’d take a consciousness leap”

As we pick up our pen and begin to write,
conceding this too is a habit routine,
we console ourself that it is quite alright
and this is an...

An Inconvenient TruthPro-Palestinians shout
What about?
"How can you support
Gaza's occupier?"
Those who shout
are rather dumb louts

The inconvenient truthGod’s vital life breath that keeps us alive,
enlivens form, which although is but dust,
forms an ego, which then begins to thrive,
feeding on lust, choosing actions unjust.
The only way out is thought cessation,
which amounts to relinquishing desire,
paving way for the realisation
of the light of Self, for...

MasksBehind the masks
We are safe
From epidemics
Behind the masks
Thieves and robbers
Being not recognised
Are safe too
Behind the masks
Voices become indistinct
Dining becomes inconvenient
Smiling hidden
Anger has no vent
Sorrow and despair overlooked
Beauty not appreciated
Behind the masks
Just like the politicians and cheaters
Never show their...
