Malarkeyhe was making so much turbulence
that he needed windbreaker trousers
his farting more than gas from cheeks
but a fluid blown attack on decency
and common sense in torrential times
full of ..it he let go off all inhibition
and called himself the master of buzz

Motherearth's ResilienceSo, Mother, where do you get all your creative ideas?
Outside, of course.

after all Earth's regeneration
is too often said
and too seldom done

Parallelismus Membrorum

What is my opposite of suicide?
Self promotion?
Ego inflation?

Progressive IntentionsThe opposite of pain
is not ease.
An apposition of ease
is ecstasy.
The difference between pain

Straight white patriarchal

Doe In My YardDoe In My Yard
I glimpsed out my bedroom window looking for nature's signs giving me clues about what today will bring.
A lone doe was nibbling on the southern lawn grass. She slowly raised her head, vulnerably held still for about 10 seconds, and resumed nibbling...

One More MessageIn a virtual reality
