Downtown Nashville
Downtown Nashville is a place I’d love to call my home,
With fine country singers dancing on the Grand Ole Opry-
With Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers singing on the stage,
Sitting in the front row would be no one else but me!

The Country Music Hall of Fame...

Brothels Have Closed
Brothels have closed now what?
Does anybody care?
Did anybody think about the hapless women living there
What about them?
What will they do now for two square meals a day?
Many saddled with children
Can they go back home?
Will their families and society accept them
That too with their children?
Will anybody...

Thanksgiving, 1971,
a parachute pilgrim approaches Northwest Flight 305
as Dan Cooper, anonymous businessman,  anarchist airborne, 
black suit, black sunglasses, a black tie
and a black briefcase broaching black motives,
Portland to Seattle, prison or criminal pantheon, 
before he can be inducted into purgatory, or the Valhalla of...

Where Did We Go Wrong
Shovels,blue overalls and head lamps.
They dug the golds fields to feed our our hungry stomachs,they carried the Dompas to free our future,they took beatings for our emancipation,but did they plant good seeds in our brains?
Did they instill education in our hearts?
We stick gold plates on...

Premium Member Why Positive Is Healthier
Positive values,
like health
integrity
resilience
compassion
empathy
beauty
are not best built
from Yang's strong conserving top negative emotions
down to Yin's struggling positive flow-power intention
toward winning nutrition 
while winning integrity's future nurture.

Health care core values
and truly wealthy WinWin communication manners,
grow out from Yinternal Zero (0)
to Yang's +1.00 holistic co-passionate percentage presence,

The Say Hey Kid
The crowd stood up and roared as
he came up to bat and scored
entertaining our rowdy bunch in center field.

Say Hey was born a poor black boy in
Alabama and went all the way to the big leagues in New
York and then to the S.F. Giants.

His real...

The Most Interesting Man In the World
If he nodded at the president, hello, 
the president would write it in his personal bio.
He told jokes to the Dalai Lama.
The Dalai laughed, even though they were about his mamma.

Once he threw out the opening pitch for a baseball game.
Two weeks later, he was...

Premium Member Hymn To Farewell
Why does my multicultural applauding message,
my polycultural cheerleading,
sound so monocultural chant, rant,
a passionless litany of redundant verse?

Who would have it said of their voice
It remains both too rich
and yet wandering on far too long?

Even resonance
can become monotonous,
whether you are a polypathic ethologist
or a monotheist
or harmony-synergy...

Away In a Far Off Town
Dozing off behind the wheel 
Sleep-deprived decapitated 
Dillaudid consequences 

Incarcerate 
Betrayed confidences 
 Incriminated 
Responsibility blotted 

Dead friends 
Incinerated 
In reality 
They rotted 

Alive. 

Years prior to demise. 
Burnt bridges. Dead ends. 
A hell we created 
Causality to impend 

Insanity 

A cyclic continuance 
Doomed to...
