I’ll stay away…
          from what brings pain
What makes tears fall
          like acid rain

I’ll stay away…
         from what is fake
What...

Progress and Preservation
Exhaust fumes and flower blooms
Acrid smells, gentler scents
& pungent decay
Hot molten gold flows out of a clear 
blue sky
Cars rumble down streets made into 
alleys through the trees that tower
over them like Eiffel
Or Freedom
With the rain age old mud mixes 
into the seams of recently...

Civilizations, ancient; 
are rife with stories, 
which they preserve 
throughout time.
Tales of the potter 
and his clay.

The creator’s clay,
is quite ancient.
The potter,
uses it to build his stories 
of life; which time 
will preserve.

What a potter preserves 
in the clay; 
takes time 
and it becomes ancient.
Many...

Destructive Preservation
Destructive Preservation



Winters grass adapting,
hibernated blades colorless...

See life growing...
Another season preserving...
True Life...

Ash tree world tree of history...
Comfort within its casual shade...

See life anchoring...
Strong base to sustain...
True Life...

Wildfires destruction fire burning...
Killing path in thirst of fuel...

See life destructing...
Self Destructive Stupid Fools...

World afire racing to burn more fossil...

Self-Preservation
I’ve completed another day.
What’s the rush in throwing yourself 
at another –
When the rooms are cold, 
and the lovers are gone
Smiling is hardly representing sanity.
Your picture hanging is messed – see there –
My smiling represents thought
If this goes anywhere – we’ll be trapped
You make me...

Self preservation
I'll go on with my life
What you took from me
Just gave me insight.

I am stronger,smarter more confident too
What you took from me
Has made me brand new.

My eyes are open
My heart is safe
I am now in a whole new phase.

I choose to be happy
More cautious,it...

A Sonnet For Self Preservation
Once a lover said to me “I’d like to pick your brain,”
“You’re a beauty darling, but I think you’re quite insane.”
I did not doubt a word he said so I opened up my mind
I think he got a little scared when he realized what he’d...

Preservation of Our Inner Most Being
Life in a nutshell

You touch those around you with your heart, when it is the only way they can be touched.

You fill their lives with happiness, when hope seems to be useless.

Let the angels take your message, for they are our messengers.

Fill your heart with...

Self-Realization For Preservation
Self-Realization for Preservation

At 3 and a half I met mom number two
Only after mom number one just wouldn’t do
Nine years have passed, and I survived the abuse
Mom number one took too long to get stable 
Now a 12-year-old must choose
I picked mom number two simply...

Self-Preservation
Sometimes you have to think first of yourself
Before you consider another.
This lesson is learned just by living your life
And not taught by school or your mother.

It’s natural to sacrifice comfort or time
To help out a friend who is needy;
But saying “I can’t” when you really...

Cowboy Preservation
I cowboy on this acre here
To preserve the legacy I hold dear
This is the life I’ve chose to lead
In my children, I’ll plant a seed

They may one day choose city life
with its equal parts of glitz & strife
But deep in their hearts they’ll heed the...

Faithful companion, Caradog, without necessity 
Habitat fed his needs, our bond rapidly developed 
Fierce competent hunter amazingly adopted me
Heritage unable to continue, thylacine near relic 
Decision to keep him secret was tumult traumatic
Exploited Tiger captured disallowed me to have it

Slender sniff nuzzled friend was a...
