Best Persons Poems
The Persons That We Are* inspired by Silent One's contest
within each human soul a struggle lies-
the battle waged between one's mind and heart

I did it for me! Not of guilt, nor shame.
A simple desire to end Heroin's evil reign!

With each new passing day, life gives itself...

Dark Pearl PersonsDark cultures of irritating dissonant pearls,
pearl persons,
perelman,
decomposing zero-souled wisdom,
nondual dark beauty

of transparently codestined lives
with deathly thresholds reflecting new moon delight,
dancing and singing bright bachanal
through fading dramatic
epic operatic
dreams
of future adventurous advents,
co-operative eco-normic identities.
Co-gravity teaches and listens
within our mutual messianic...

Non Human PersonsMajority of earth belongs to them
They are the humans of the ocean
Unlike the ones on the land, me and you
They're living the life they were intended to
Half of their species aren't starved and diseased
Like the greed and destruction we have achieved
They don't pollute their own...

POTUS
A striking presidential sentiment.
Like defending an expensive choice cut
of red meat.
This view of healthy humanity
as a valuable commodity
reminds me
of his plan for health insurance divestment:
A very, very good plan for all Americans

Dangerous PersonsIf a person returns hate
with love,
and returns violence,
with the other cheek,
he is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped,
by any means possible.
If a person fights for a river,
and inspires her tribe
to fight powerful interests,
she is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped,
by any means possible.
If a person...
