Miracle Divine
In the midst of great turmoil and strife, 
There is a force manifestly to be heard…seen….touched
A voice—ever so soft… yet loud enough to break mountains at their base
It can make a grown man cry—can distort the finest face
Lead the mother eagle back to its nest…
Run...

Autumnal Days In America

It’s autumn time in America,
the colors are changing ...
(it’s alt right to gasp in whited disbelief)
as poplar majority, quaking Aspen leaves
slowly fall off 
the John Birch branches

Minority bad weather report
says with autumnal census certainty,
that the colors are changing
irrevocably 

And as such, 
the changing of the...

Premium Member Kind of Reasonable Explanation
Do angels walk amongst us, to be honest I really don’t know 
     My answers may seem rhetorical, for what life tends to throw 
    Could well be our imagination, reaching out tendrils with clasps

Where My Soul Belongs
While a part of my soul longs,
To be carried away,
Far far,
From myself,
To another world,
To a mountain top,
To a lonely place,
To where the air is thin and light,
To where sensations stop,
To where feelings end,
To where noise is drowned out by clouds of silence,
Another part,
Just wants to...

Perfectionism
Perfection, is an evil lord
demanding ever greater tribute, 
it wields a sharp and heavy sword
that pierces deep to persecute

I fear this liege, this graven image
there's no resistance to his wants;
no will, nor the amount of courage
can protect me from his evil taunts   

Forgiveness,...

America's Hypocrisy Or the School of Resentment
are you free, humanity, by power of love 
or in chain by love of power or by lack of it? 

a student of The School of Resentment asks…

back in time,
at such dominant spaces  
called Shunganunga, here
or Hora Arsadi, Malka Atete, Tullu Nam Dur, there—

Love Justice-To My Dusk and Dawn
LOVE JUSTICE (To my dusk and dawn)

You have murdered me with perfection,
It is a shame to raise an objection,
No need to question,
You are guilty under this hearts section.


My feelings depose in this piece,
Feelings that do not cease,
From the moment you were arrested by my mind's...

Premium Member The Truth About True Greatness
The truth about true greatness
Is not well understood
The evidence we need to know
For choosing something good

There are two kinds of people
The first are those who try
To aim for good and righteousness
And hate to tell a lie

The second kind of person
Just does the way they feel
They...

Premium Member That Troubling Interdependent Sensory Web
I mean,
seriously?

Talk about
boundary issues!

I get it, 
why the 7th multicultural value,
and most recent
to finally make it in
to sacred UniversalYang/UnitarianYintegral
iconology,
doxology,
eulogy,
ecotherapeutic theology,
green ecofeminist ecology,
declares our polypathic RESPECT
for our interdependent sacred web
of life
reincarnating win/win love

As in,
could Elder EarthMothers
get a little RESPECT?

Which just might not fail to mention
that AnthroSupremacists...

Premium Member A Villanelle Affair
Each graceful bird embrace air, charmingly,
A morning dew slides to expecting leaves,
One lovely dove sings above, pleasantries,

Per bustling wind brush of things, breathlessly,
Curling waves a surfer craves, surfboard heaves,
Each graceful bird embrace air, charmingly,

Frogs leaps as sheep's bleats unanimously,
Boy hits scores, and hit's some more...

SABBATH

Tradition has the Sabbath
as a day of rest and contemplation,
a day of thoughtful appreciation of
what manifestly belongs to the Lord
Tradition says the Sabbath should be
the studious realm of sura and testament,
chapter and verse, call and response
across awesome scales that are 
universal and eternal
On this cool...

You said your mercies are new
With the dawn of a new day
Your mercies are renewed
And your faithfulness made greater

With the long night over

Like the breaking of a new day
Your word has been sent out

That you shall make our ways prosperous

Premium Member Are We Safe
Am I safe?
Do I matter?

Are we safe?
Do we matter?

Am I sustainably healthy?
Do I resonantly matter enough?
to survive win/lose evolutionary assumptions
about history,
to thrive within win/win multicultural wealth.

According to the amygdala center
of our Default Mode Network

"Am I safe?"
we originally ask of EarthMother womb,
