(Elizabeth II 1926-2022)


Are we - crow, blackbird, sparrow -
aware of what's occurring?
We cannot tell, they assume,
but gape and gaze from up here.

This is a land with a departed monarch.
We - sparrow, blackbird, crow -
flit or sit above the richness
of that marching red regalia.

Thousands of arms...

If I Am Not A Born Poet

If i am not a born poet
Then who really are
As I see table spoons
To seal rice and curry
From the far away moon
While i can’t from a dish
That kept ready on table
Full of boneless salmon fish

I see also the forks
As...

Apfelblüten / Apple Blossoms / Flores del Manzano  

Wie kleine Sterne
Die zarten Apfelblüten
Im Spiel der Blätter


Like tiny stars
Delicate apple blossoms
In play of the leaves 


Como pequeñas estrellas
Fino flores del manzano
En juego de hojas

Borrowing from David Holmgren, Permaculture Principles and Pathways Beyond [Win-Elite v Lose-NonElite] Sustainability, 2002, p. 1

Health ethics are Beloved Community normative principles
used to guide action toward good and light and right outcomes
and away from degeneratively bad and wrong outcomes,
darkly ego-pathic and monoculturing
rather than polypathically polyculturing.

Regenerative...

Theoretical abstractions,
reductive hard word choices,
to describe and prescribe spiritual experiences
are unsatisfactory for daily consumption and absorption
as they reify exceptions to your Business As Usual,
which is probably LeftBrain patriarchally dominant.

Exceptional Left-Right bicameral ego/eco-consciousness,
of natureLeft-spiritRight nondual co-arising experience,
erupts from the creolizing soil
of your diurnal polypathic
ergodically liturgical

I want to go out in pouring  rain
Take my umbrella for drops to run n drain 

Hear a peacocock raise a hue and cry
Think the rain is nearby

Oh to to be drenched  in rain
Me none can restrain

Pitter patter falll the drops
Outside the houses...

You Armenians who question my identity...
Who whisper behind my back and smirk
Considering me a half breed
Not pure
The child of a mixed marriage
 
You who refuse to speak to me
In your mother tongue
Because my words falter
And my accent is disgraceful
 
You who turn your back on...

Haikus Against AI

By Mark D. Stucky
Computer AI,
what once was only sci-fi,
is now arising.

You might kill us all,
AI, but write good essays
for my college class?

Wish intelligence
was less artificial and
more real in our world.

No machine needed
for creating recklessness.
Already have lots.

Not nearly enough
authentic intelligence
is found within us.

Let’s search...

Prelude

This story is based partly on the Indian mythology and partly on my imagination.
The theme is anger, how it can destroy even the entire Earth and if controlled,
how it converts into a creative energy. The incident is from...

I’ve journeyed to the highest peaks to glimpse beauty vast below
To gaze upon the Arch of earth, still higher one must go
I looked suspended from this world, the vistas I could see,
Behind me were the sun and stars, below humanity
So far away, I clearly saw,...

The 2023rd Psalm

By Mark Stucky
“Above the law” is our shepherd; he shall always want.

He maketh us to lie about the election; he leadeth us into deep divisions.

He stealeth our souls; he leadeth us in the paths of insurrection for his name’s sake.

Yea, though we talk...

(The UK Queen's Platinum Jubilee was in June 2022)


You're at Trooping the Colour now, Dominic.
Were we not friends when we were schoolboys?
You look so smart now, Dominic, guardsman,
wrapped in the shining redness of that costume
under your tall, beautiful bearskin cap.

Recall that friendship, Dominic,
those distant days...
