AltruismBig hearts love the world
but may let too much in,
too fast, too soon;
the sense of self stretched to breaking.
Ego becomes fantasy,
a dream of emotional origins.
The world shifts away from touch,
The mind is helpless to operate on the future....

Seven Riddles SolvedEven though Brothers and Sisters I have none

What is it that gets wetter the more it dries
it could be anything...

We Wish It Is Not TrueOur crazy hurry outwits our wits
We wish it is not true. the car speed.
The restaurants. the caution in the winds.
The rape and early sex the little child
Now knows, whose overwhelming juvenility
Had made men mad and wild
We too are perpetrators of the deed
That beckons wails...

I spoke quite angrily to her mother,
As I examined Hannah, shook my head.
“What were you thinking, taking her so far?
You’re lucky that your daughter isn’t dead.
I said, “She has acute appendicitis,
Must operate on her without delay.”
Her mom bending over, kissed her daughter
And then...

Can They Do HipsIf plastic surgery was free
And painless
And available
And fast
What would I have done?
Can they do eyes? Mine have floaters.
Can they create teeth? Many of mine are missing.
Can they do left hips?
Mine has shingles.
Can they operate on you when you have oozing open sores?
Can I make an...

Dala Dala WaI'm packing,
I'm ironing
All go in the suitcase
Lord with my case
It is not written happy on my face
I will move at my own pace
To a world I know of
Where it all started off
I'm going back
To claim my umbilical cord
The connection to my beggining
It is...

Healthcare DisinvestmentWhat did you talk about
in your Anger Management Class today,
dear Yang?
Crisis survival skills.
As opposed to opportunity optimization skills,
I would guess?
I suppose so.

it might be a good idea to just take off your...

The Camel of RedemptionIf a mere straw can break a camels back,
Why put straw on him to begin with?
It has to be done to go forward?
Never go back, make your own way,
Use that straw to make hay.
Then and only then will you succeed.
When your mother gave birth to...

Animal ExperimentsMedical experiments are insane.
Stop inflicting suffering and pain.
It's no excuse that you can.
Operate on an animal for the benefit of man.
To torture a rat, no good will come of that.
To kill a monkey, is not funny.
All life is sacred, in the end.
Destroy it, and you...
